Battery Selection and Installation
The Tempest BeltStation Battery Compartment holds either one Tempest Lithium-Polymer rechargeable battery or three
standard alkaline AA cells. Lithium-Polymer batteries are the primary power source. High quality alkaline AA cells may be
used in situations where Lithium-Polymer batteries are not available or are not charged. One Lithium-Polymer battery
comes standard with each Tempest BeltStation. Additional Lithium-Polymer batteries may be purchased. Contact your
dealer or distributor to purchase additional batteries. The Lithium-Polymer batteries supplied with your Tempest Wireless
system are warranted for 90 days from the date of purchase.
Lithium-Polymer batteries offer up to nine hours of battery life and recharge in
approximately 2¾ hours.
Lithium-Polymer batteries ship from the factory with approximately 50% charge. It
will not damage the Lithium-Polymer batteries to use them without charging them
first. This will, however result in shorter run time until the Lithium-Polymer battery
is fully charged. When possible, charge Lithium-Polymer batteries to full capacity to
ensure full battery life prior to use.
Using (3) alkaline AA batteries can provide up to four hours of battery life. Use
only high quality alkaline AA cells. This will provide enough time to fully charge the
Lithium-Polymer battery.
To remove the battery door, press down on the thumb markings and pull the battery door toward the bottom of the
BeltStation.
To remove batteries from the battery compartment, turn the BeltStation battery side down and tap the bottom of the
BeltStation on the palm of your other hand.
Please be careful to insert alkaline AA batteries according to the marked polarity. All of the alkaline AA cells must be
oriented the same direction.
If the battery cover does not close properly, the battery may not be inserted correctly.
