Best charging practice:
After testing, proceed to the Upload menu and follow these instructions. Store the unit in a safe location and plug it in via the USB port at the bottom of the control box.
Please use the charging block and USB-A to USB-C cable that was shipped with the STRIKE unit. The USB-C charging port is located on the bottom right of the control box. Turn the device ON and plug the cable into the charging port. A plug icon will appear in the top right of the screen when the device is plugged in and charging. Ensure that the device is powered OFF.
Ensure that the device is adequately charged before testing. The battery icon at the top right of the screen indicates the charge level when unplugged. To check the voltage of the battery, navigate to the System Info menu.
- Low battery: < 3.4 V
- Fully charged: 4.1 - 4.2 V
Below 3.4 V, a low battery screen will appear. The device is unable to run tests while the device is on the low battery screen. As prompted, please plug in your STRIKE unit and power it off.
Important note: Power off the device when not running tests or uploading results.
For any charging questions, please submit a support request or email a STRIKE representative at strike@biocorellc.com.
