OSMO Tutorials - Osmo Battery and Charger Damage Assessment

OSMO Tutorials - Osmo Battery and Charger Damage Assessment

This video will show you how to assess whether or not your Osmo battery or battery charger are damaged. Battery charger. Appearance. Check if the AC cable port is mechanically damaged and if the metal surface is turning black or burnt. Check if the 4 pins for connecting the battery charger are mechanically damaged and if the metal surface is turning black or burnt. LED. If you don’t connect the AC cable the LED should be off. Even if the AC cable is not connected the LED should still turn green when the battery is inserted. Function and performance. Connect the AC cable to a power outlet and measure the 1st and 4th pins’ voltage with a multimeter. Voltage should be between 12.50V and 12.7V. With the charger plugged in attach a battery without full charge. The LED should go from green to red. When the battery is fully charged the LED should turn green again. It is recommended to use 2 or more batteries for the assessment. Battery. Appearance. Check if the battery is mechanically damaged and if the 4 pin connection points are turning black or burnt. Connection. Attach a battery without full charge to the battery charger by pushing the battery to the 4 pins on the charger. Insert a battery into the handle. Open the bottom cover, push in the battery and check if it can be powered on.  Insert multiple batteries into the battery charge or handle and check if the Osmo behaves as intended with each battery. Functions and performance. Measure the voltage of pins 1 and 4 with a multimeter. Voltage should be between 9V and 12.7V. if the voltage is 0 please place the battery into the battery charger and charge it for 1 – 5 minutes and then measure the voltage again. If the voltage is still 0 the battery is damaged. Insert the battery into the handle bar, power on the Osmo and check battery information in the app. Check if the cell voltages and total voltages are normal.
