Glen Deakin Posted June 25, 2015 Report Share Posted June 25, 2015 Is this the purple one you are talking about? I believe it charges all types of np1s chemistries. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
osa Posted June 25, 2015 Author Report Share Posted June 25, 2015 Correct the purple one. Bought a used one just double checking. It doesnt say anywhere on it lithium specifically. I sent the serial to idx hopfully i will hear a reply soon -Ken Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter Mega Posted June 25, 2015 Report Share Posted June 25, 2015 If it's a JL2 plus, it will charge Lithium batts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IDX TEK Posted June 26, 2015 Report Share Posted June 26, 2015 Hi Osa, Thank you for your inquiry. In regards to your question, the JL-2PLUS is an NP Lithium-ion, Ni-Cd and Ni-Mh style battery charger. Therefore, you will be able to charge your NP Ni-Mh style battery as long as the battery's charging terminals are the same as the JL-2PLUS(the JL-2PLUS has standard charging terminals).

ninjafreddan Posted June 28, 2015 Report Share Posted June 28, 2015 In regards to your question, the JL-2PLUS is an NP Lithium-ion, Ni-Cd and Ni-Mh style battery charger. Therefore, you will be able to charge your NP Ni-Mh style battery as long as the battery's charging terminals are the same as the JL-2PLUS(the JL-2PLUS has standard charging terminals). My JL-2PLUS doesn't properly charge Hawk Woods NP-35 or NP-70 lithium batteries. I was on location work when my Hawk Woods charger died on me. Apparently the fuse was soldered onto the circuit board, so I ditched it and got a JL-2PLUS charger, which has a user changeable fuse. But it didn't properly charge my Hawk Woods batteries, so I had to buy IDX NP-L7S batteries as well. No biggie, I like the IDX quality.

Christian Spaeth Posted November 23, 2016 Report Share Posted November 23, 2016 Reviving this old thread, the fuse in my JL-2PLUS broke during travel and here (in Germany) there are no fuses that size (like an inch long? we only have 20mm or 35mm). Maybe IDX can chime in and tell me which type of fuse is needed and where to get it. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IDX TEK Posted November 23, 2016 Report Share Posted November 23, 2016 Hi Christian, The fuse for the JL-2PLUS is a 250V 3.15A (20mm in length) fuse. You should be able to find it at your local electronics store. Please let us know if you have any further questions. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christian Spaeth Posted November 23, 2016 Report Share Posted November 23, 2016 Thanks Zack, I thought 20mm would be too short, but of course these are easy to find anywhere. Thank you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abuck050 Posted May 21, 2018 Report Share Posted May 21, 2018 So I had a JL-2Plus unplugged for a week and just plugged it in this morning and the power light is blinking amber rather than staying solid and when I place a battery into the charger the charging lights do not react. Anyone ever experience this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derek H Posted May 22, 2018 Report Share Posted May 22, 2018 It’s an error code. I don’t remember the meaning but I suspect there’s a fault with the charger. The manual online will spell it out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nequiz Posted August 7, 2020 Report Share Posted August 7, 2020 Hi. I have a JL-2 plus charger, when I put a battery to charge, the light changes to red and after a time of charging, the light changes amber flashing, but never reaches green. According to the manual, my battery has a fault. ok, but it does the same with the 18 batteries I have. Can you advise me or tell me if I definitely can't do anything with my own hands? a fuse a mosfet, a component that is not turning green. thanks in advance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
