Types of devices
Check that the specifications of your device are compatible with Strike™ Battery specifications. Strike™ Rechargeable Batteries are compatible with most devices that require standard batteries, including high drain devices.
There are some more sensitive devices which require a high current such as detachable camera flashes, and ultra high beam torches. Please ensure that you check the specifications of Strike™ Batteries are compatible with your device before purchasing batteries.
The range of devices that Strike™ Batteries can be used in is extensive. This includes clocks, alarms, toys, remote controls, cameras, torches, musical instrument battery packs, audio equipment battery packs, health devices, grooming devices, smart locks, mouse and keyboards, radios, lights.
How to Charge the Batteries
Each Strike™ Rechargeable Battery is fitted with a USB-C port on the battery body that allows you to charge the battery.
To charge, simply plug the USB-C cable directly into the port on the battery body. Plug the other end of the cable into a standard 5V power supply (marked on the power supply port or device). Most new smart phone power supplies, power banks, and USB wall outlets are able to supply the correct amount of power. Once the LED light is solid, simply unplug the USB-C cable. You can use the supplied multi-head USB-C cable, or any other standard USB-C cable.
Charging Indicator Lights
The LED light on the battery body will FLASH whilst charging. Once the light turns SOLID, the battery is full.
Note that the LED indicator light is in a different position on the battery body depending on the model of battery.
Charging time varies depending on the capacity of the battery, and also the current your power supplies. Old USB outlets may be slower. See battery specs for estimated charging times.
