Overview

The BC-L120 Battery Charger can be used to simultaneously

charge up to four BP-L40A/L60A/L90A Lithium-ion Battery

Packs, or to supply DC power to an external device.

Features

Simultaneous connection of up to four battery packs

The BC-L120 can connect and charge up to four battery packs

at the same time. These battery packs may be either the BP-

L40A, the BP-L60A, the BP-L90A, or any mix of the three.

Quick charging

The BC-L120 features a new system that charges up to four

battery packs quickly and efficiently.

For details, see “Charging system” on page 3(EN).

Compact and lightweight

The BC-L120 is compact, lightweight, and easy to carry.

Diagnostics function

The BC-L120 checks each connected battery pack for

abnormalities. An indicator flashes red for any battery pack

that cannot be charged normally.

Charging progress indicators

Indicators light up to show three different charging levels: less

than 80% capacity, 80% capacity, and greater than 80%

capacity.

Skip function for fully charged batteries

If a fully charged battery pack is attached to the BC-L120,

nothing happens to the battery pack and the indicators show the

charging of the pack is complete.

Supply of up to 100 W of DC power

The BC-L120 can supply up to 100 watts of DC power to an

external device connected through an optional DC connecting

cable.

3(EN)

Cooling fan

An internal cooling fan turns on whenever the BC-L120 is

charging a battery pack or supplying power to an external

device.

• This unit is designed for charging Sony lithium-ion battery

packs (BP-L40A/L60A/L90A).

• The DC-L1 (NP-1B adaptor) and DC-L90 (BP-90A

adaptor) cannot be used to charge nickel-cadmium battery

packs.

Charging system

The BC-L120 uses a new system that first charges each

connected battery pack to 80% capacity, in sequence. It then

simultaneously charges all battery packs to 100% capacity. In

this way, it achieves more efficient and faster charging than

conventional systems in which each battery is charged to 100%

capacity before the next battery is charged. Details about the

new system and the charging times are given below.

After the BC-L120 has charged one battery pack to 80%

capacity, it moves on to the next battery pack. When the last

battery pack is 80% charged, the BC-L120 begins

simultaneously charging all battery packs until they reach

100% capacity. In this way, battery packs are charged more

quickly than in previous systems.

5(EN)

Precautions

On the battery charger

• Use the BC-L120 in an operating environment of 0°C to 40°C

(32°F to 104°F). Since charging is difficult at low

temperatures, we recommend that battery packs be charged

between 20°C and 30°C (68°F and 86°F).

• Avoid using or storing the BC-L120 in dusty places or places

with corrosive gases.

• Avoid using or storing the BC-L120 in places exposed to

direct sunlight.

• Do not cover the ventilation holes.

On battery packs

• Even when fully charged, battery packs gradually lose their

charge naturally. Use the battery packs as soon as possible

after charging.

• Carry and store battery packs by installing them in your

equipment or by repacking them using the original packing

material.

• To prolong the life of battery packs, store them in a cool place

(about 20°C (68°F)), and charge in a place with an ambient

temperature between 10°C and 30°C (50°F and 86°F).

• When temperatures are 10°C (50°F) or lower, the

performance of a battery pack suffers and the usable time of a

battery pack becomes shorter. To get the longest usable time,

warm the battery packs to room temperature (about 20°C

(68°F)) before use.

• Carrying a spare battery pack is recommended.

Lithium-ion battery packs are free from memory effect.

There is no need to discharge them fully before recharging.

If the usable time of a battery pack becomes very short, it is

time to replace it with a new one.

initial value.

• A charging current

other than that

corresponding to

the connected

battery pack was

detected during

charging.

If any of the above

conditions occur, try

recharging the

battery pack two or

three more times. If

the condition

persists, the battery

pack is probably

defective and should

be replaced.
