The Dionic XT Series features an Integrated PowerTap® and USB ports on the side of the battery to power camera accessories.

The PowerTap® allows for convenient deployment of up to 12 Amps of DC current for various parallel devices. The USB port supplies a regulated 5 volts

and maximum 2 Amps current and may be used for charging mobile devices.

Will deliver a high rate charge matched to the

capabilities of the battery (typically a one or two

hour rate, depending on battery type). During

this stage, six separate cuto methods are in

operation, simultaneously, ensuring the fastest,

safest charge for that battery.

Charging is a BALANCING or “stabilizing” mode

which calculates each battery pack type to oset

any imbalance of the battery’s cells, created by

unequal self-discharge or any capacity mismatch

of the individual cells in the pack. This stage can

vary in duration from zero to as much as 16 hours,

depending on the condition of the battery. The

Stage Two charge reduces current automatically

as the battery charges maintaining the cells at a

safe voltage level. A battery will typically leave

Stage Two in 2-4 hours under average operating

conditions.

Charging is the Anton/Bauer exclusive Lifesaver®

maintenance mode. This patented pulse routine

keeps batteries fully charged, free from self-

discharge - indeﬁnitely - without damaging heat

associated with a so-called “trickle charge”. The

Stage Three programming monitors the self-

discharge of the battery, providing charge only

when the battery self-discharges to about 95% of

its capacity.
