If only the green light is on (the one farthest from the edge 
of the card), it is indicating that the battery is fully charged 
(above 8.6 volts). When the card is getting power from 
the battery only, this light will stay on for a very short 
time. However, the battery will continue to backup the 
RamKeeper for several hours. (See the chart below.)
As soon as power is restored to the Transformer, it begins 
charging the battery again and the green light will come on.

Battery
The battery is a sealed Gel/Cell rechargeable battery rated 
at 8 volts and 3.0 AMP. HR. The capacity of the battery can 
be increased by adding cells in parallel for longer battery 
backup time.
Additional batteries are available from Applied 
Engineering. Each battery carries a one year warranty but 
with normal use, these batteries should Last about 5 years.
Transformer
The wall Transformer is an unregulated 9.5VDC at lA 
supply with a coaxial round connector on one end that 
plugs into the RamKeeper. The connectors outside 
contact is positive and the internal contact is ground.

Warning: Do not use other transformers. The
wrong transformer could seriously damage your 
RamKeeper.
