MH-C124S FAQ
Q: How long
exactly is needed to charge my batteries?
The charge time varies with the battery
capacity. You are recommended to remove the batteries at the
suggested time table below. Keep in mind that since the charging
speed is so slow, going over a few hours will not harm the
batteries.

Q: Can I leave my batteries
in the charger until I need to use them?
For most NiMH batteries, including Maha
rechargeable batteries, they can be left in the charger for an
extended period of time without leakage, explosion, or deformation.
However, do not store the batteries in the charger if it is not
necessary. Always store charged batteries in a cool location.
Q: Can I use my
MH-C124S in the car?
Since the MH-C124S runs on 12V DC,
you can use it in the car provided that you have a cigarette lighter
adapter (Maha Part Number: MHS-DC-124). Make sure that your vehicle
is supplying 13.8V or below. Some trucks may have 24V. In addition,
never plug in the charger while you are starting your vehicle.
Q: Can I use my
MH-C124S to charge "Renewal" or other rechargeable Alkaline
batteries?
No. The MH-C124S is only compatible
with NiCD and NiMH style rechargeable batteries. Charging "Renewal",
other alkaline batteries, or any non-rechargeable batteries, may
result in damaging the charger or even fire.
Q: When I insert the
batteries into my charger, there are no lights whatsoever. What
could be wrong?
If no indicator is displayed, check your
power source. Make sure it is plugged in correctly into a wall
outlet with matching specification listed on the wall adapter. If
you continue to experience difficulty, it may be possible that the
wall adapter has failed. In that event, contact our customer service
at 714-990-4557 for assistance.

Limited Warranty.
