100-20000 mAh
Similar to the Safety Timer, Capacity Cut-Off allows you to limit
the maximum charge capacity of the charging process. Limiting a
charge process on a 1200mAh battery to 1300mAh, for example,
can protect against extreme overcharging. Consult your battery
manufacturer’s recommendation for capacity limits.

The X1 Touch has an integrated safety timer for all charge process-
es. You can set the maximum charge time as a backup in the event
the X1 Touch is unable to detect the proper charge cut off condi-
tions. This can happen when charging faulty cells, exhausted packs,
or packs exhibiting abnormal resistance or voltage fluctuations.

80 C/176 F
If you are using the optional external Temperature Sensor, you can
set the temperature cut off. If you are not using the Temperature
