Your charger is an entry level six cell charger, hence the price. Lipo batteries all have battery cells that are charged up to 4.2 volts.

Ahhh... you must be from the old school of battery chargers. When you select CHARGE it also always balances the cells to max voltage. When you select BALANCE, it balances the cells at whatever voltage the battery is currently at. When you select STORAGE, it reduces the voltage to a storage voltage and balances the cells. When you select DISCHARGE it reduces the voltage to a much lower voltage so that you can recycle the battery, it also balances the cells.

I'm sorry but I don't think that this is a great deal to be honest... I mean, it's basically the same as an imax b6 charger, except for this one having a 100w rating instead of 80w for the Imax, but that isn't an issue, since this one has a 5 amp limit, so you won't even reach above 80 watts if you are charging 4s battery's... And a knock off b6 can be had for $20 on banggood... Yes, they might be a knock off, but they really work great, I've used them for years and their accuracy have been great... I think those are the real steal of a deal... Otherwise it's a great review though!

Again, this charger comes with a built in power supply, it comes with the common cables and it is from a legit battery company. The B6 charger, with power supply is not going to be the same price and it does not include the common cables and many are a knock-off (China) and not 100% North American certified. However, it is the goto budget charger and even I have two of them, purchased years ago when I first got into the hobby.

@@CAPTAINDRONE798 I bought the b6, with power supply and cables for €21 from Banggood. It was indeed a copy, but I knew that beforehand, and it was a well reviewed and tested to be accurate copy. The only part where this one wins is the American parts and certification aspect to be honest.

@@vandenelsenkoen Wow! That is a super low price from the B6 (good deal). Normally that is the cost of the version without power supply.

Actually, we need a charger that "real' balance the cells, and not just charge all the cells at 4.20v, and then try to discharge the higher voltage cells.
@CAPTAINDRONE7983 жыл бұрын
Just in case you are new to the world of battery chargers... When you select charge on a charger like this, it balances the cells as it charges the battery.

@@CAPTAINDRONE798 i know what you mean, but in one of the latest videos of JB he showed that the "balance function" tries to discharge a cell when reaches the 4.20v so to keep up with the others, thats why the balance charging take so long sometimes (i cant explain it better, my english sucks!)

@@BASSstarlet JB is a great guy, and is my goto guy for the technical side of things, but be very careful interpreting his videos. He makes even the smallest thing HUGE and loves to report on "Problems". He is a good source of info, but many of the problem areas he points out are so very insignificant.
