Aquapulse voltage

[Octopulse]

Jason (or others)

My new Aquapulse (compact) comes off the charger fully charged with a max voltage of about 11V.

Does this seem about right as the user manual says it should be nearer 13V but maybe this is for the older 10 x AA packs. The newer packs are 8 cells which i know are 1.2V per cell but charge to a nominal voltage of about 1.35V each......so 8 x 1.35 gets close to the 11V.

Thanks for any help,
Tony.

Well it appears my multimeter was in need of a new 9V battery and as a result was giving erroneous readings.......

I replace the old battery pack of NiCd with three 3.7 volts, 4000mH homemade battery pack, delivering 11.1 volts with a continus performance over 20 hours of use and there still running 100%
