GP Manuals & User Guides

GP (Gold Peak) is a globally recognized brand primarily known for its extensive range of battery and power-related products. Managed by GP Batteries International Limited, the company develops and manufactures diverse energy solutions, including the popular ReCyko rechargeable NiMH batteries, Super Alkaline primary batteries, and specialized lithium coin cells. GP also produces a variety of intelligent battery chargers and high-capacity portable power banks designed to keep everyday electronics running efficiently.

In addition to consumer power products, the overarching Gold Peak group operates in acoustics and electronics. While the brand is most famous for its batteries, the "GP" identifier is occasionally found on industrial equipment such as forklifts (Shanghai Gather Power) and specialized medical testing kits (Getein), though these are distinct entities from the consumer electronics division.

• What does a rapid flashing green light mean on my GP battery charger?

  On many GP chargers (like the B421), a rapid flashing green LED typically indicates that the batteries inserted are bad or single-use (non-rechargeable). You should replace them with new GP NiMH rechargeable batteries.

• How long does it take to charge GP AA rechargeable batteries?

  Charging time varies by battery capacity and charger model. For example, charging AA batteries with a capacity of 1300mAh to 2600mAh usually takes between 4 and 7.5 hours on a standard GP everyday charger.

• Does the GP Power Bank have a low power mode for small devices?

  Yes, some models like the M20C feature a Low Power Mode for charging devices like wireless earphones and smartwatches. You can typically activate this by pressing and holding the power button for 2 seconds.

• Can I charge Li-ion or non-rechargeable batteries in a GP NiMH charger?

  No. GP NiMH chargers are designed strictly for Nickel-Metal Hydride batteries. Inserting non-rechargeable (alkaline) or other chemistries like Li-ion can cause leakage, rupture, or damage to the charger.

• How often should I recharge my GP Power Bank to maintain battery health?

  To preserve the lifespan of the lithium polymer battery inside your power bank, it is recommended to use and recharge it at least once every 4 months.
