Hahnel Powerstation Tc Compact Manual Washing
Firstly, many thanks to the guys that posted a reply to my query on the 2100uz.With this same camera was supplied a Hehnel TC charger for use with a set of AA 1600 NI-MH batteries. No instructions came with the charger and no indication of the charging time or rate on the batteries or the charger.The charger has 2 red LED's which light on plugging in, but even after 17 hours on charge the LED's are still lit and I have no way of determining when the Batt's are fully charged, or if the LED's are supposed to go out or change colour etc.Anyone any experience of this particular charger or how to detemine when full charge has occured.can you over charge the batteries?Thanks for any help. Terry,I think I have the answer to your Hahnel battery charger query, direct from Mr. Hahnel himself no less!I recently bought an Oly C-2100uz, but here in the UK it does not come with a charger or rechargeable batteries (unlike the US model).
So I bought these separately and, totally by coincidence, I bought a Hahnel TC charger plus eight AA 1600 NI-MH batteries, and as soon as I charged the batteries I had exactly the same question as you. The instructions that come with the charger specify a 14 hour charge for 1600mAh batteries (and less for lower spec batteries) and they stress that the batteries should not be charged for longer than necessary as this can reduce battery life. However, the instructions are not clear about the purpose of the two red LEDs, therefore I emailed Hahnel for more details (their website is at). For your information I have reproduced below my question and the reply from Mr. Hahnel.Hope this helps.Terry SMY QUESTION:I have a very simple question that I hope you can answer. Earlier this week I purchased a Hahnel Powerstation TC Plus Battery Charger together with 8 Hahnel AA NiMH batteries - a very nice compact design at a very reasonable price.
However, it is not clear from the instructions how to determine when the batteries are fully charged and should be removed from the charger. There are two red LEDs on the charger that light up when the batteries are charging - do these lights go out when the batteries are fully charged?Yesterday I charged 4 of my AA batteries for over 15 hours and the LEDs were still lit. The instructions say that 14 hours should be sufficient to charge 1600mAh batteries and that the batteries should not be left charging for longer than is necessary, therefore after 15 hours I removed them from the charger. If the LEDs do not go out to indicate full charge then in the future, when the batteries may not be fully discharged, how will I know what charge time is required?THE REPLY:The LEDs show that a battery is connected and is charging. The TC Plus isa trickle charger and does not indicate when the battery is full.To charge an empty Hahnel 1600mAh battery will take 14 hours to charge.You will have to note the time of charge and remove batteries at theapprox. Time.We have just launched an new charger Twin Powerstation which willindicate when the battery is full for your reference.Best regards,Michael HahnelHAHNEL INDUSTRIESTerry Lwrote:Firstly, many thanks to the guys that posted a reply to my query onthe 2100uz.With this same camera was supplied a Hehnel TC charger for use witha set of AA 1600 NI-MH batteries.

This is a bit bigger than you think but working well for us in our RV. We had extremely hard water and this brings it down to essentially 0ppm. I do think the capacity ratings may be off a bit. This has twice the capacity of the smaller version but is not rated at twice the gallons. For a small diameter increase I am happy I went with the bigger unit. If you camp for extended periods this is the one to get. If you are more of a week or weekend warrior, the smaller unit is better as it recharges quicker (shorter flush times).
Very happy with this purchase. I can actually drink the tap water now and no more white deposits on all the pots/pans/glasses. I will give you the bottom line on the OneFlow+ Salt-Free Prevention and water filtration system up front. It seems to work very well and I am very happy with it.
Hahnel Powerstation Tc Compact Manual Washing System
If you are interested to know why I like it, read on.First, a bit of questionably useful information, I tried contacting the company to find out the cost of the filters. After being on hold for a total of about an hour having made 5 calls and talking to 2 people who both said 'wrong department' and getting a web site to check, which turned out to be the wrong company, I was not able to get an answer. That is the only reason for the 4 stars rather than 5. In a system like this you not only buy the unit and filters, but also the companies help and responsiveness.Here is the background about this type of water.
We brought this electronic descaler just a few days ago and I am really impressed by the quick results! I was surprised by the quality of this product and already I can taste and see the difference in our water.When I first bought the product, I was most worried about the installation but it turned out to be extremely simple. All you have to do is follow the directions in the user manual that comes with it and double check to make sure that everything is in the right direction as shown in the manual. The whole thing only took us about 15 minutes to set up and then it was in working condition.The results are quick and honestly life-changing. I'm looking forward to using this for a long time and have healthier and cleaner water to wash with and drink from! Well folks, my wife and I built our home in 2001.
We are now 14 years later, how time flies. When constructing the house we elected not to install a water softener, but recently our hot water heater failed, and found that it, as well as most of our wall inlet fixtures for all of our sinks and showers were heavily corroded and some with slight leakage.
Not to mention the corrosion I've been trying to eliminate in our dishwasher. Shame on us for not paying closer attention to the fixtures. And, yes.we are guilty of not draining the hot water heater once in a while. It was so corroded, water would not come out of the drain valve. When we removed the drain valve completely, water could only just drip out. We replaced the water heater, along.
Have owned my Nuvo system for 4 years now. The system works, not quite as good as my salt system at my last home,but,i only have to replace the filter every six months,no other maintenance.no dealing with buying salt, lugging it home, checking the salt tank frequently etc.etc.I am on a well, very hard water,once every two years I do soak my faucet heads in vinegar,the small holes in the faucets do get some build up,the toilets and tile showers have no build up or spotting on my glass block walks. Plus not filling my septic system with salt.
