The right door has a separate key with a black key cover. The right door is not for day-to-day use and should only be accessed by an authorised person for set up.
For PIN or MIFARE® card access please refer to the relevant user guide.
Charging Set Up
Please ensure the cabinet is unplugged when you are loading AC Adaptors in the ChargeLite™ Wall.
- Open both front doors.
- Power strips for your AC adaptors are in the right side compartment. (figure 3)
Figure 3: ChargeLite™ Wall with right-side service area door open There are two styles of AC adaptor:
- In-Plug AC Adaptor - where they plug directly into a socket and the charging lead goes directly to the device (figure 4).
- In-Line AC Adaptor - where they have a mains lead between the power socket and the AC adaptor and then a charging lead going to the device. (figure 5)
‘In-Plug AC Adaptors' can be san be plugged directly into the sockets and the changing lead passed from the right side compartment, behind the divider, and onto a shelf.
‘In-Line AC Adaptors' can be plugged in and the adaptor secured in the right side compartment in the placed on the shelf with your devices or secured in the right side compartment and only pass the charging lead behind the divider onto the shelf.
Figure 4: In-plug AC Adapter Figure 5: In-line AC Adapter - NOTE: Maximum loading 100Watt (rated capacity) per socket. (400Watts (rated capacity) per power strip).
As standard, Type G UK power sockets are installed, but there is a manufacturing option to have Type C/Type F Schuko Euro power sockets.
Positioning the Charging Leads in the Bays
This step applies for both AC Adapter Charging and USB-C Charging models.
Open the front door consider where the charging lead needs to be positioned on the shelf based on the device that is to be stored and charged.
Cable Clips
Unpack the white cable clips (figure 6). These clips hold the cables in place and stop the leads from being pushed off the shelf.
A range of positions are available at either side of the locker bays.
Figure 6: USB-C Cable clip bag Install the white cable clips into the bays by pushing them into the holes provided at the front of the shelves. (figure 7)
Use the cable clips to secure the charging leads (figure 8)
Figure 7: Installing USB-C Cable Clips (shown on ChargeLite™ Trolley) Figure 8: Threading the charging leads through the cable clips Power Management Cassette
The power management cassette in the top of your ChargeLite™ Wall may get warm when it is handling a significant electrical load for a period of time and this, in turn, may make the top of the locker feel warm to the touch. This is completely normal and will cool down when the power demand reduces.
Thermal Trip
In the United Kingdom the detachable mains lead carries a fuse for the protection of users.
In the event that your ChargeLite™ Wall unit has been installed with no wall plug, the power management cassette also has a resettable thermal trip. This trip acts in much the same way as a fuse, to protect users and once tripped it can be re-set.
The thermal trip is mounted on the back edge of the power management cassette in the top of the side compartment. When the trip has operated there will be no power to the sockets and the centre button of the trip will be extend by approximately 12mm.In the event of a trip:
- First - Switch off the power supply.
- Check if the reason for the tripping is apparent. If possible correct the issue.
- Do NOT reset the trip with the mains power switched on.
- Allow 60 seconds after it has tripped before switching the mains power on.
- Re-set the trip - Press the centre of the button back into the trip. When re-set the button will stay pressed in when you release your finger.
- Restore power to the power and check that the trip remains set.
- If the trip operates again you should first switch off the mains and then switch off and unplug everything in the locker sockets.
- Re-set the trip (as above)
- Restore power to the power and check that the trip remains set.
- Then, one by one, re-plug everything into the locker sockets, switch on and check that the trip remains set.
If the trip will not re-set or it continues to trip, there may still be a fault somewhere or the trip may have developed a fault. Please contact Support on 01787 226 166 or support@lapsafe.com
Timer
View the timer user manual here
ChargeLite™ Wall lockers have a plug in timer included as standard. This allows you to set active usage periods and to prevent using excess power when needed.
You can locate the timer on the top AC Adapter block inside your unit.
Remove the timer, plug the timer into the wall and then plug the locker charging lead into the timer.NOTE: The timer requires charging before initial use. When you first use the timer the LCD display may not be illuminated. It is recommended to charge the timer for 14 hours after the initial installation to charge the memory back-up battery.
Legacy Timer Model
On older models, the timer was offered as an additional option. This style of timer can be found located behind an oval plate on the rear of the unit.
You can view or download the manual for the legacy timer module here
Care & Maintenance

- Lock your ChargeLite™ Wall when not in use
- Keep the keys in a safe place - not in the same room as the unit
- Read the Health and Safety guidelines in the user guide and share this information with all users
- Activate your warranty at on the LapSafe® website
- Unplug charging leads before removing devices out of the locker

Cleaning
Before carrying out any cleaning, or accessing the service area, disconnect the mains power.
Disconnecting the unit from the mains supply
Your ChargeLite™ unit is connected to the mains supply via a mains lead. There is an IEC connector at one end (plugs into the unit), and a 13amp mains plug at the other (plugs into the wall mains outlet).
13 amp Mains Plug (Switched)
Switch OFF the outlet and remove the plug from the socket. If access to the service area is required, you can only gain access by removing the IEC plug to ensure the unit is not plugged in.
DO:
- Your ChargeLite™ Wall has a powder coat finish which is very durable and can be wiped clean using a mildly soapy cloth.
- To remove more stubborn marks or perhaps an adhesive residue you can use a gentle solvent such as white spirit or a mild solvent-based cleaner.
DO NOT:
- Do not soak any areas of the locker
- Do not get the power cassette or the locker sockets wet
- Do not soak any area with solvent
- Do not use solvent cleaners on the locks
Cleaning The Fans & Ventilation Holes
Depending on the model, your ChargeLite™ unit may have thermostatically controlled fans. Under normal operating temperatures, the fan is off. The fan will come on when the unit exceeds a pre-set temperature and continue to run until the temperature lowers below its lower set point. If the temperature rises, the unit will shut down automatically and sound an audible alarm.
Over time, dust and debris can partially block the fan and ventilation holes, preventing maximum airflow and causing the unit not to cool as expected. It is recommended that the fan blades and ventilation holes be checked and cleaned at least once every three months or if you suspect an increase in normal running temperature or if the unit shuts down.
To clean the fan and ventilation holes, carefully agitate the dust with a suitable dry brush and extract the loose particles with a vacuum cleaner. Additionally, the ventilation holes can be wiped with a "damp" (not wet) cloth. Do not use a damp (or wet) cloth on the fan housing, as the primary charging electrics are behind.

Your ChargeLite™ Locker 32 is supplied fully assembled, tested and ready for installation.
Installation
Anti-Topple Bracket
The ChargeLite™ Locker 32 is floor standing and because of its weight it MUST be secured to a wall to prevent risk of it toppling.
An adjustable, anti-topple bracket is integrated into the top of the locker and can be adjusted to reach across a gap of up to 75mm to the wall.
Always use suitable fixings for the construction of the wall.
WARNING: Because surfaces vary widely and the fitting location and method of fixing is out of LapSafe®’s control, it is imperative that you consult with appropriate engineering, architectural, or construction professional to ensure that your ChargeLite™ Locker 32 is affixed properly and that the substrate is suitable to handle applied loads.
Positioning
We recommend a gap of at least 150mm is left between the right side of locker and the next item of furniture or wall.
This is to ensure an appropriate space to access the Side Service Area, mains power connection and fan (if fitted).
Door Operation
The front door hinge allows the locker door to swing through approximately 150 degrees until it meets the side of the locker.
- Do not let go of the door while it is moving.
- Do not force the door in either direction.
Both of these actions could damage the door or the locker carcase.
Locks & Keys
Each ChargeLite™ Locker 32 has a camlock keyed lock on the front door as standard and two additional, ‘keyed alike’ locks for access to the side service area and the lower front compartment.
For PIN or MIFARE® card access please refer to the relevant user guide.
Access to the Side Service Area
To access the sockets, USB-C power banks and power management cassette you will need to access the door on the right side of the locker.
This can be opended using one of the keys with the black cover.
This door should only be used for set up and maintanance and not considdered day-to-day use.This door should only ever be accessed by and authorised person.
- Unlock the right side compartment door
- Tilt the top of the door outwards.
- There is an earth strap onto the top of the door which will need to be disconnected by pulling the connector off the tab. (This connection must be reinstated when the door is replaced).
- Then gently lift the door out of its slots in the base of the locker and place it to one side.
NOTE: The earth strap MUST be re-connected before the door is replaced.
Power Management Cassette
The power is controlled through a Power Management Cassette that is located in the top of the side service area of your ChargeLite™ Locker 32.
Figure 3: ChargeLite™ Locker power cassette Charging Set Up
AC Adaptor Charging Model
Please ensure the cabinet is unplugged when you are loading AC Adaptors in the ChargeLite™.
- First access the side service area (as above).
- Now the sockets and AC adapter storage shelves can be accessed.
There are two styles of AC adaptor:
- In-Plug AC Adaptor - where they plug directly into a socket and the charging lead goes directly to the device (figure 4)
- In-Line AC Adaptor - where they have a mains lead between the power socket and the AC adaptor and then a charging lead going to the device. (figure 5)
‘In-Plug AC Adapters' can be plugged directly into the sockets and the changing lead passed through the grommeted holes at the front of the locker.
‘In-Line AC Adapters' can be loaded onto the shelves and secured behind the elastic strap before passing the charging leads through the grommeted holes and plugging the power leads into the sockets.
Figure 4: In-plug AC Adapter Figure 5: In-line AC Adapter The locker power sockets are designed to provide power for small loads up to a maximum of 90 watts per socket (nominal rating of the AC adapter).
- UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES SHOULD A HEAVY LOAD BE PLUGGED INTO A SOCKET.
As standard, Type G UK power sockets are installed, but there is a manufacturing option to have Type C/Type F Schuko Euro power sockets.
NOTE: See the section below on Positioning the Charging Leads
USB-C Charging Model
Please ensure the cabinet is unplugged when you are connecting USB-C charging leads in the ChargeLite™
Remove the side service area door (as above).

Figure 8: USB-C charge status display
Positioning the Charging Leads in the Bays
This step applies for both AC Adapter charging and USB-C charging models.
Open the front door consider where the charging lead needs to be positioned on the shelf based on the device that is to be stored and charged.
Cable Ties
At the front right corner of each shelf is a cable management slot that will secure the charging lead at the desired length to reach the device.
Make a small loop in the charging lead and pass it onto the slot. (The lead can be installed in the slot on the same shelf as its device or in the shelf above – whichever works best for your devices)
Feed enough cable through to reach your devices and feed any excess back through the to the service area.
Secure the cables in place with the cable ties provided. (figure 9)
Figure 9: Position of cable tie brackets near to gromets. Cable Clips
Unpack the white cable clips (figure 10). These clips hold the cables in place and stop the leads from being pushed off the shelf.
A range of positions are available at either side of the locker bays. (figure 11)
Figure 10: USB-C Cable clip bag Figure 11: Available positions for the USB-C cable clips (these positions are available for all shelves) Install the white cable clips into the bays by pushing them into the holes provided at the front of the shelves. (figure 12)
Use the cable clips to secure the charging leads (figure 13)
Figure 12: Installing USB-C Cable Clips (shown on ChargeLite™ Trolley) Figure 13: Threading the charging leads through the cable clips Power Management Cassette
The power management cassette in the top of your ChargeLite™ may get warm when it is handling a significant electrical load for a period of time and this, in turn, may make the top of the locker feel warm to the touch. This is completely normal and will cool down when the power demand reduces.
Thermal Trip
In the United Kingdom the detachable mains lead carries a fuse for the protection of users.
In the event that your ChargeLite™ unit has been installed with no wall plug, the power management cassette also has a resettable thermal trip. This trip acts in much the same way as a fuse, to protect users and once tripped it can be re-set.
The thermal trip is mounted on the back edge of the power management cassette in the top of the side compartment. When the trip has operated there will be no power to the sockets and the centre button of the trip will be extend by approximately 12mm.In the event of a trip:
- First - Switch off the power supply.
- Check if the reason for the tripping is apparent. If possible correct the issue.
- Do NOT reset the trip with the mains power switched on.
- Allow 60 seconds after it has tripped before switching the mains power on.
- Re-set the trip - Press the centre of the button back into the trip. When re-set the button will stay pressed in when you release your finger.
- Restore power to the power and check that the trip remains set.
- If the trip operates again you should first switch off the mains and then switch off and unplug everything in the locker sockets.
- Re-set the trip (as above)
- Restore power to the power and check that the trip remains set.
- Then, one by one, re-plug everything into the locker sockets, switch on and check that the trip remains set.
If the trip will not re-set or it continues to trip, there may still be a fault somewhere or the trip may have developed a fault. Please contact Support on 01787 226 166 or support@lapsafe.com
Timer
View the timer user manual here
ChargeLite™ units have a plug in timer included as standard. This allows you to set active usage periods and to prevent using excess power when needed.
You can locate the timer on the top AC Adapter block inside your unit.
Remove the timer, plug the timer into the wall and then plug the locker charging lead into the timer.NOTE: The timer requires charging before initial use. When you first use the timer the LCD display may not be illuminated. It is recommended to charge the timer for 14 hours after the initial installation to charge the memory back-up battery.
Legacy Timer Model
On older models, the timer was offered as an additional option. This style of timer can be found located behind an oval plate on the rear of the unit.
You can view or download the manual for the legacy timer module here
Network Connectivity
If your ChargeLite™ features network connectivity, you can plug the ChargeLite™ into your network by connecting a standard network cable into the auxiliary point.
Below the front door there is a key controlled compartment that is ready to house a network switch or switches (Netgear JSG524 or similar).
Power for the network switch(es) can be fed down from the socket compartment into this compartment through the 30mm hole at the rear.
The network leads can pass up into the side compartment through the rectangular cut-out at the front of the locker.
An up-link lead can be passed through the hole at the right, rear of the locker, just above the power connection socket.
Adjust the length of the network leads onto each storage shelf and use the stud fixings beneath the fan cut-outs on the side of the locker to secure them in position.
Data Transfer (DTK)
If your purchase includes DTK your ChargeLite™ will be supplied with sufficient network cables to connect each device to the installed network switch.
Care & Maintenance
Do:
- Lock your ChargeLite™ Locker 32 when not in use
- Keep the keys in a safe place - not in the same room as the unit
- Read the Health and Safety guidelines in the user guide and share this information with all users
- Activate your warranty at on the LapSafe® website
- Unplug charging leads before removing devices out of the locker
Do Not:
- Do not leave keys in the doors
- Do not remove doors
-
Do not try to modify the ChargeLite™ in anyway without contacting LapSafe® first to check that it is safe to do so.
If you have any queries, please contact us through any means below in the Useful Links section.
Cleaning
Before carrying out any cleaning, or accessing the service area, disconnect the mains power.
Disconnecting the unit from the mains supply
Your ChargeLite™ unit is connected to the mains supply via a mains lead. There is an IEC connector at one end (plugs into the unit), and a 13amp mains plug at the other (plugs into the wall mains outlet).
13 amp Mains Plug (Switched)
Switch OFF the outlet and remove the plug from the socket. If access to the service area is required, you can only gain access by removing the IEC plug to ensure the unit is not plugged in.
DO:
- Your ChargeLite™ has a powder coat finish which is very durable and can be wiped clean using a mildly soapy cloth.
- To remove more stubborn marks or perhaps an adhesive residue you can use a gentle solvent such as white spirit or a mild solvent-based cleaner.
Do Not:
- Do not soak any areas of the locker
- Do not get the power cassette or the locker sockets wet
- Do not soak any area with solvent
- Do not use solvent cleaners on the locks
Cleaning Fans
Depending on the model, your ChargeLite™ unit may have thermostatically controlled fans. Under normal operating temperatures, the fan is off. The fan will come on when the unit exceeds a pre-set temperature and continue to run until the temperature lowers below its lower set point. If the temperature rises, the unit will shut down automatically and sound an audible alarm.
Over time, dust and debris can partially block the fan and ventilation holes, preventing maximum airflow and causing the unit not to cool as expected. It is recommended that the fan blades and ventilation holes be checked and cleaned at least once every three months or if you suspect an increase in normal running temperature or if the unit shuts down.
To clean the fan and ventilation holes, carefully agitate the dust with a suitable dry brush and extract the loose particles with a vacuum cleaner. Additionally, the ventilation holes can be wiped with a "damp" (not wet) cloth. Do not use a damp (or wet) cloth on the fan housing, as the primary charging electrics are behind.

The power to the sockets is controlled through a Power Management Cassette that is fixed in the top rear, above the rear service compartment of the ChargeLite™ Trolley.
The service compartment conatins the power sockets for your AC adapters (AC models), or power banks (USB-C models).
As standard, Type G UK power sockets are installed, but there is a manufacturing option to have Type C/Type F Schuko Euro power sockets.
Your ChargeLite™ Trolley is supplied with a 2 metre mains lead.
Power Management Cassette Getting Started With Your ChargeLite™ Trolley
Your ChargeLite™ Trolley is supplied fully assembled, tested and ready for installation.
There are ventilation holes through the base and on the rear of the cabinet. Care must be taken that none of these holes are obstructed.
Moving Your Trolley
Your ChargeLite™ Trolley should always be moved with care and should only be moved by two competent authorised people.
Before Moving The Trolley:
The following checks and actions should be carried out, irrespective of the distance travelled:
- The power MUST be turned off at the wall socket.
- Carefully disconnect the mains power lead from the back of the trolley and from the wall socket placing the power lead in the cable tidy located on the rear door of the trolley. (figure 4)
- Check that any network cable (Cat5) has been disconnected from the back of the trolley.
- Ensure that all of the trolley doors are securely closed and locked, and that all keys have been removed.
- Disengage wheel brakes using the foot operated pedals before moving the trolley. (figure 3)
- Special care should be taken on inclines.
At the new location:
- Ensure that all wheel brakes are applied using foot operated pedals (figure 3).
- Never position the trolley in front of any fire exit or fire escape routes
- Never position the trolley in the view of any windows for security
Figure 3: Wheel Brake Figure 4: Rear Door Cable Storage Positioning
Select a location where there is sufficient airspace for the cabinet to ventilate. Your ChargeLite™ should not be left within a cupboard or small closed space when charging, because the recirculation of its own warm air could lead to unnecessarily high temperatures for periods of time.With your ChargeLite™ in its working position, the mains lead can be fitted into the mains socket at the rear of the right side of the cabinet and taken to an available wall socket to be plugged in and switched on.Doors & Locking
The front doors are unlocked using the key with the white key cover. The front doors are for every day access to the ChargeLite™ Trolley unit. The key can be removed once the door is open and this will prevent the door from closing fully whilst it is unlocked.
For PIN or MIFARE® card access please refer to the relevant user guide (see below).
Access to the Rear Service Area
To access the sockets, USB-C power banks and power management cassette you will need to access the door on the rear of the trolley.
This can be opened using the keys with the black cover.
This door should only be used for set up and maintenance and not considered day-to-day use.This door should only ever be accessed by and authorised person.
- Remove the power lead.

AC Adaptor Charging Model
Ensure the trolley is unplugged when you are loading AC Adaptors in the ChargeLite™.
Remove the rear door as described in Getting Started.
You will find power strips for your AC adaptors in the back. (figure 5)
Figure 5: AC ChargeLite™ Trolley with rear door removed There are two styles of AC adaptor:
- In-Plug AC Adaptor - where they plug directly into a socket and the charging lead goes directly to the device (figure 6)
- In-Line AC Adaptor - where they have a mains lead between the power socket and the AC adaptor and then a charging lead going to the device. (figure 7)
‘In-Plug AC Adapters' can be plugged directly into the sockets and the changing lead passed through to the self.
‘In-Line AC Adapters' can be plugged in and the adaptor can either be secured in the rear service area or passed though onto the shelf along side your devices.
NOTE: See the section below on Positioning the Charging Leads

This step applies for both AC Adapter Charging and USB-C Charging models.
Open the front door consider where the charging lead needs to be positioned on the shelf based on the device that is to be stored and charged.
Cable Clips
Unpack the white cable clips (figure 12). These clips hold the cables in place and stop the leads from being pushed off the shelf.
A range of positions are available at either side of the locker bays. (figure 13)
Figure 12: USB-C Cable clip bag Figure 13: Available positions for the USB-C cable clips (these positions are available for all shelves) Install the white cable clips into the bays by pushing them into the holes provided at the front of the shelves. (figure 14)
Use the cable clips to secure the charging leads (figure 15)
Figure 14: Installing USB-C Cable Clips (shown on ChargeLite™ Trolley) Figure 15: Threading the charging leads through the cable clips Power Management Cassette
The power management cassette in the top of your ChargeLite™ may get warm when it is handling a significant electrical load for a period of time and this, in turn, may make the top of the locker feel warm to the touch. This is completely normal and will cool down when the power demand reduces.
Thermal Trip
In the United Kingdom the detachable mains lead carries a fuse for the protection of users.
In the event that your ChargeLite™ unit has been installed with no wall plug, the power management cassette also has a resettable thermal trip. This trip acts in much the same way as a fuse, to protect users and once tripped it can be re-set.
The thermal trip is mounted on the back edge of the power management cassette in the top of the side compartment. When the trip has operated there will be no power to the sockets and the centre button of the trip will be extend by approximately 12mm.In the event of a trip:
- First - Switch off the power supply.
- Check if the reason for the tripping is apparent. If possible correct the issue.
- Do NOT reset the trip with the mains power switched on.
- Allow 60 seconds after it has tripped before switching the mains power on.
- Re-set the trip - Press the centre of the button back into the trip. When re-set the button will stay pressed in when you release your finger.
- Restore power to the power and check that the trip remains set.
- If the trip operates again you should first switch off the mains and then switch off and unplug everything in the locker sockets.
- Re-set the trip (as above)
- Restore power to the power and check that the trip remains set.
- Then, one by one, re-plug everything into the locker sockets, switch on and check that the trip remains set.
If the trip will not re-set or it continues to trip, there may still be a fault somewhere or the trip may have developed a fault. Please contact Support on 01787 226 166 or support@lapsafe.com
Timer
View the timer user manual here
ChargeLite™ units have a plug in timer included as standard. This allows you to set active usage periods and to prevent using excess power when needed.
You can locate the timer on the top AC Adapter block inside your unit.
Remove the timer, plug the timer into the wall and then plug the charging lead into the timer.NOTE: The timer requires charging before initial use. When you first use the timer the LCD display may not be illuminated. It is recommended to charge the timer for 14 hours after the initial installation to charge the memory back-up battery.
Legacy Timer Model
On older models, the timer was offered as an additional option. This style of timer can be found located behind an oval plate on the rear of the unit.
You can view or download the manual for the legacy timer module here

Cleaning
Before carrying out any cleaning, or accessing the service area, disconnect the mains power.
Disconnecting the unit from the mains supply
Your ChargeLite™ unit is connected to the mains supply via a mains lead. There is an IEC connector at one end (plugs into the unit), and a 13amp mains plug at the other (plugs into the wall mains outlet).
13 amp Mains Plug (Switched)
Switch OFF the outlet and remove the plug from the socket. If access to the service area is required, you can only gain access by removing the IEC plug to ensure the unit is not plugged in.
DO:
- Your ChargeLite™ has a powder coat finish which is very durable and can be wiped clean using a mildly soapy cloth.
- To remove more stubborn marks or perhaps an adhesive residue you can use a gentle solvent such as white spirit or a mild solvent-based cleaner.
Do Not:
- Do not soak any areas of the locker
- Do not get the power cassette or the locker sockets wet
- Do not soak any area with solvent
- Do not use solvent cleaners on the locks
Cleaning Fans
Depending on the model, your ChargeLite™ unit may have thermostatically controlled fans. Under normal operating temperatures, the fan is off. The fan will come on when the unit exceeds a pre-set temperature and continue to run until the temperature lowers below its lower set point. If the temperature rises, the unit will shut down automatically and sound an audible alarm.
Over time, dust and debris can partially block the fan and ventilation holes, preventing maximum airflow and causing the unit not to cool as expected. It is recommended that the fan blades and ventilation holes be checked and cleaned at least once every three months or if you suspect an increase in normal running temperature or if the unit shuts down.
To clean the fan and ventilation holes, carefully agitate the dust with a suitable dry brush and extract the loose particles with a vacuum cleaner. Additionally, the ventilation holes can be wiped with a "damp" (not wet) cloth. Do not use a damp (or wet) cloth on the fan housing, as the primary charging electrics are behind.
