The Nordic ID HH83/HH85 can be charged via desktop or USB-C charger. The USB charger needs to have a USB-C connector and preferably support for Quick Charge 3.0.
Charging time from 0 – 100% via the desktop and Quick Charge 3.0 USB charger is about 4 hours for both Nordic ID HH83 Barcode and RFID ACD variants.
Due to its larger battery, charging time from 0 – 80% is about 4 hours for Nordic ID HH85 RFID ACD, and 6 hours to 100%.

NOTE! that one Nordic ID HH85 with pistol grip and one spare battery with pistol grip cover cannot be charged in the same bay of a desktop charger.
