Three stages of charge indication level are indiciated by the LED indicators.

Refresh Function (Ni-Mh only)

If a battery pack with remaining capacity is charged repeatedly, the storage capacity of the battery may be reduced due to memory effect. To prevent against this memory effect, a "refresh function" is provided to fully discharge a battery pack before charging. This is for Ni-MH battery only.

BP-M100 with 50% remaining capacity takes approx. 2.5 hrs.
BP-M50 with 50% remaining capacity takes approx. 1.3 hrs.
