7. Troubleshooting
7.1. Slow Charging or Sequential Charging
If batteries are charging slower than expected or in sequence rather than in parallel, ensure you are using a power adapter with sufficient wattage. For optimal parallel charging of three batteries, a 100W USB-C power adapter is recommended. Using a lower wattage adapter (e.g., below 65W) may result in sequential charging or extended charge times.
