Charge Guard iQ (CHGGRDIQ) is a single-socket adaptor that helps stop lithium-ion batteries from overcharging. It cuts power to your battery charger when the charge level you've set is reached, and always after 10 hours.
What it does
- Remembers your charge limit: set it once and it cuts power at the same level each time.
- 10-hour safety cut-off: it never charges for more than 10 hours in one go.
- Surge protection: 175 joules.
- Blue light: shows when it's active and when charging is complete.
Use it with
The original charger for domestic lithium-ion battery products, such as:
- Cordless power tools: drills, sanders, saws, grinders.
- Light electric vehicles: e-bikes, e-scooters, e-skateboards.
- Cordless garden tools: mowers, leaf blowers, line trimmers.
- Hobby gear: golf carts, ride-on toys, metal detectors.
Don't use it with
- Medical or life-support equipment.
- Fridges, freezers, sump pumps, fish tanks, or anything that needs continuous power.
- Heaters, cookers, kettles, water heaters or other high-power appliances.
- Any charger or device above its rating of 10A or 2400W.
- A charger that didn't come with your device or isn't recommended by its maker.
- A battery that's damaged, swollen or overheating.
Charge Guard iQ doesn't measure battery temperature or replace your device's own battery protection.
Safe charging tips
- Don't charge overnight or leave charging unattended.
- Charge on a hard, flat surface. Charge e-bikes and e-scooters away from living areas.
- Use Charge Guard iQ indoors only, in a dry, well-ventilated place, and don't cover it.
- It doesn't protect against a direct lightning strike.
Safety first
If a battery, charger or Charge Guard iQ gets hot, swells, smells like burning, sparks or smokes, stop using it. If it's safe to do so, switch it off and unplug it at the wall. Don't open it or try to repair it. See My Jackson power product is sparking, smoking or overheating.
