The EGO POWER+ CH5500 56V 550W Rapid Charger delivers fast, fan-cooled charging for EGO Arc Lithium batteries so you can get back to work quickly and safely.

If you use EGO outdoor power tools, long battery downtime can interrupt yard work or professional jobs. The CH5500 Rapid Charger actively monitors each battery cell and uses a built-in cooling fan plus smart communication with the battery pack to speed recharge while protecting battery health. It is compatible with the whole EGO POWER+ Arc Lithium battery line and backed by EGO’s limited warranties.

How quickly will the CH5500 recharge my batteries?

The CH5500 is built for speed: it charges a 2.5Ah battery in about 30 minutes and a 5.0Ah battery in about 40 minutes, significantly reducing idle time between jobs. LED indicators show progress in four stages so you can estimate remaining charge at a glance.

• 2.5Ah battery: ~30 minutes to full charge
• 5.0Ah battery: ~40 minutes to full charge
• LED charge levels: 25%, 50%, 75% and 100%
• Works across the EGO Arc Lithium battery range

What safety features protect the battery during rapid charging?

The charger actively monitors individual cells and manages temperature to avoid overheating. An internal fan provides continuous cooling during charge cycles while the charger and battery communicate to prevent stress, helping maintain battery longevity.

• Cell-level monitoring prevents imbalanced charging
• Active fan cooling reduces internal temperature rise
• Smart communication coordinates charger and battery behavior
• Designed to minimize heat-related wear on battery cells

Which batteries and tools are compatible with this charger?

The CH5500 is compatible with all EGO POWER+ Arc Lithium batteries and therefore supports the full line of EGO cordless outdoor tools. You can use the charger for yard equipment batteries across capacities without needing multiple chargers.

How will I know when a battery is charging or finished?

Four LED indicators provide a clear charge status, lighting up progressively as the battery fills. This makes it easy to see whether a pack is ready for use, partially charged, or still in a rapid fill stage without removing the battery.

• LEDs indicate 25%, 50%, 75% and 100% charge stages
• Visible status at a glance saves time during job planning
• Indicators help manage multiple batteries and shift schedules
• No guesswork—plug in and monitor the LEDs
