SkyRC B6Neo Charger - run it from USB! Supplied by Banggood

[@ReggieRailSystems]

Fantastic review Wayne and I've ordered one for my son who has this RC car that uses 3S and its perfect for his trip to the track as he is now able to carry one of my 3500mAh 6s to drive it. Impressive little unit.

That's great - such a tiny little thing, it's nice as a field charger

[@ElidasTV]

I've been using chargers that I bought second-hand over a decade ago, and I've been waiting for this one to arrive. While researching this product, I found out about the Fast PD charger and bought a 65W PPS GaN charger and a 100W C cable. The ease of charging with USB-C seems to be a big attraction.

[@CurryKitten]

Yes - I was surprised just how much power you could get from USBC with a PD adapter. Makes everything a lot more convenient to use

[@BigBoootyBass]

Amazing travel setup. My 100w PD laptop charger will also charge my cells. Fantastic.

[@CurryKitten]

Yes, good call on this. Since filming this, my wife had a bunch of power adapters from her office she asked me to throw out, and amongst them was a 65W HP PD charger which I've now taken for this :)

Fantastic review, Wayne! Thanks a bunch! 😃 Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊

[@CurryKitten]

Thanks, you too!

[@NJ-Tech]

Nintendo Switch colours too! Bonus

[@CurryKitten]

The colour is very pleasing to the eye isn't it!

Love the buttons the scroll wheels always die before the charger

[@CurryKitten]

I don't think I've had a scroll wheel die on me yet

[@stevefox3763]

Ha ha, those deathdapters go In the bin straight away when I get them!

[@CurryKitten]

That is the correct place for them!

[@stevefox3763]

@@CurryKitten Yep, those things are lethal, compliant ones have shutters but even better, there are clamshell adapters that would not cost the Chinese much more to include that are 100% safe.

simple question 4 months later: is it really any good ? I am asking due to a video titled AVOID! 80% FAILURE RATE - Do not buy B6neo chargers. he owned 5 of these and 4 suffered from defects mostly the fan no longer spinning and I guess overheating. I am about to buy this one but now I am hesitant it the new isdt 605pd would not be better.

[@CurryKitten]

This was the video from RC Video Reviews. i did comment at the time, that my one was fine, but that was only after a few weeks of use. But yes, 4 months on and I do use it regularly - and there's no issues. Of course, this doesn't mean there's no issues - either I got lucky, or he got a bunch from a particularly bad batch

[@greedfox7842]

it just keeps saying cell error. i'm sending it back.

[@CurryKitten]

If you can do a multimeter reading across the cells and it's coming up good, then you may well have a duffer. Send it on back straight away

[@greedfox7842]

@@CurryKitten yeah I don't know how to do that I'm like extra stupid. Electronics are magic to me.

[@boomfiziks]

Can it balance charge a 1S battery?

[@MCsCreations]

I believe it will do it if you make a series connector cable. I made some, they work very well.

[@CurryKitten]

Well, technically a 1S lipo is always in balance as it's 1 cell can't be compared with another cell to make it out of balance :) If you are talking about storage charging, as MC says - there are board/cables for this as chargers very rarely do them. You can put this into 1S and select storage, but I haven't got any 1S lipos around to test. What normally happens it it complains there's no balance connector and fails, but I'll grab a 1S from somewhere and test at some point.
