imaxRC B3 Pro 2S 3S Lighium LiPo Battery Charger Explained

[@OlliArokari]

I assume the battery is a standard 3S LiPo, in which case each cell is 5200mAh, not 1733.33...mAh, you don't divide the capacity by number of cells to get a cell's capacity, unless it's a 3P battery. The batteries are labeled by their per cell capacity, and then the cell count to get a preferred voltage (1S = 4.2V, 2S = 8.4V, 3S=12.6V and so on). If you take your battery apart and put the cells in parallel (the 3P battery), you'd then get 15600mAh battery that outputs 4.2V (fully charged). So the correct calculations are 5200/700 = 7 hours and 26 minutes for the B3 charger to charge a 2 or 3 cell (2S/3S) 5200mAh battery.

[@robojax]

Hi, Yes each cell has 5200mAh battery is in a 3S 5200mAh battery. the 3S battery is connected in series but each cell is charged individually and they need current. The charger is rated at 700mA. This is the total current it supply from charger so we have to divide it in order to find the time. The 700mA rate of charge is not per cell. I have charged 2200mAh and 5200mAh and it was proven to be correct.

[@OlliArokari]

@@robojax that is not correct. The charger charges a single cell at 700mA. What the 3x means is it can provide the 700mA over all three cells it's connected to simultaneously but it doesn't charge one cell at 2100mA. Messure it yourself if you can, or ask an engineer. Charging 2200mAh battery with the B3 charger will take just over 3 hours. If you get less, it's because you havent charged the battery from 0% to 100%. The LiPo discharge rule is to discharge about 80% which in voltage means to about 3.5-3.8V. This means to get to full again, it doesn't need the full 2200mAh. It could also be that the charger gives more amps than rated, but what I said still applies: charging 5200mAh with the B3 charger no matter if its 2S or 3S, it still takes over 7h.

[@robojax]

You just answered it "doesn't charge one cell at 2100mA" yes true. so it charge over all three with 700mA. That is what I am saying. if it charges at 700mA exits from charger at any moments, then you can find the total time/hour until the battery is full. I have taken energy storage course at graduate level and practically I have charged my battery.

[@OlliArokari]

​@@robojax I think there is some misunderstanding here since I've read your replies to comments where you've done the calculations correctly. In your video you did not - which is what I am trying to tell you. The B3 charger charges one cell at 700mA, 4.2-4.25V. It doesn't matter if you've connected 2S or 3S. As you yourself have commented, the charge time is always [cell capacity]/700mA=[hours to fully charged]. But then you said "The 700mA rate of charge is not per cell" - while in fact, it is. Each cell in a 3S 5200mAh battery is 5200mAh. And in your video you divide the 5200mAh battery capacity by three leaving 1733mAh per cell, which is completely false. Charging 5200mAh at a rate of 700mA takes 7.42 hours and not 2.5 hours as you claimed in your video. But then in your comments you've said that it takes 7.5 hours?? Very confusing. But I'm sticking to the errors in the video since that's what people will see mostly. It doesn't matter what courses you've taken, I'm trying to teach you something so you won't spread false information in the future of your videos. I think it's great what you've created - I'm just pointing out a few errors.

[@PSYInform]

Olli Akokari is correct. The 3x700mA is a true, but misleading statement from the manufacturer. This charger has 3 independent chargers inside for each battery, and each charger supplies 700mA to the battery it is connected to. So you need more than 7 hours to charge the 5200mAh battery. Thank you for the video though.

the charger will keep charging till the all cells have reached their max voltage. the max voltage for a typical cell is 4.2v, so in total a 3s battery will be 12.6v when the charger turns off. if ur battery peaks at 12v, then each cell is maxxed at 4v. the charger will continue to try and charge it thinking it will eventually reach the desired 12.6v. but it won't. idk tho rlly. im confused y ur battery is at "almost 12v" when it should be at 12.6v when fully charged. my 18650 cells r charged till 4.2v

[@robojax]

you can't change a battery or a cell that has voltage below 3.2V. the charger will not charge it. the battery should not be 0V.. when you use it, you should never allow the voltage to go below 3.2V or less or more depending on manufacturer specs. So the battery should be dead. but if you think to revive it, apply 4.2V to each cell from a power supply and limit the current to like 500mA. Higher current might cause fire. Allow it for half hour. After that if the voltage stayed, then you can connect it to the charger.

Hello, I have what may be a dumb question. The charger lists the “max charge current” as 3*800mA. If I have a 5200 mAh 2S battery, does it take 5200/800 = 6.5 hours or 5200/(3*800) = 2.16 hours to fully charge?

[@lolllama1504]

I’ve come to the conclusion that the answer is (5200/2*800)

[@robojax]

800mA is the total current. Don’t worry about the cells. Just divide the capacity by 800mA

[@robojax]

If the voltage of a loop battery goes below 3.2 or 3 voltes , the charger will not charge it assuming it is dead. So first wait for a few hours . If charge doesn’t start then charge I individually by connecting 4.2V with constant current or maximum 1C. 1C means 1 capacity of the battery. Of your battery is 2000mAh then 1C is 2000mA. In a few minutes measure the voltage of the cell , if it is not dead it should be above 3v . Then the charger will charge it.

Will this charge a 3s 2200mh 25c?? Help!!!!

[@robojax]

25C means this battery can supply 25A constant (C) and has nothing to to with charging. yes it can. I have shown and explained in video. This charger can charge at 700mA or 750mAh (I forgot, you watch the video to find out) so 2200mAh ÷ 750mA=2.9H so it will charge it in about 3 hours.

When i charge my 1 cell and 3 cell turns red but 2 cell did not lit up what does that mean?

[@robojax]

it means either battery is dead. but also possible that charger is bad. to make sure, try charging another battery to make sure charger is in good shape.

[@amarendrakumar7766]

Does it balances the batteries

[@robojax]

It is balanced charger meaning it charges independently each cell and start or stop the current accordingly.

[@foreignkeys3980]

Will the charger turn off once it is done charging?

[@robojax]

yes it does. It will go solid green. Solid green means no current goes to battery. That's why when battery is not connected, it is all solid green.

@@robojax I charged my 2200mah 3 s for 4 hours. Not a single light turned green. Is that a problem cause I just got this charger

[@robojax]

2200 ÷ 700 =3.1, so it should be 3.1 hours. Yes the charger could be bad if the battery is okay.

How long does it take to charge 2s 500mah lipo?

this charger can charger at 700mAh so divide 1700mAh ÷ 500mAh and it will give you the time in hour.

Will a 5200mah 7.4v 2s 30c battery be able to get charged by this?

Can i charge a 3s lipo battery 8000mah?

[@robojax]

the capacity of 8000mAh does not matter. this can charge up 700mAh charge. It can charge 2S and 3S which yes it can. But you have to calculate the time, 8000/700= 11.4 hours is the charge time. So if you don't need it quickly this will work in about 12 hours. But for such battery you might need 2000-5000mAh charger to do it quickly like in 2 or 3 hours.

[@robojax]

Yes 3000mAh (3A) charger can charge fast. 8000 ÷ 3000= 2.6 hours. Just divide the battery capacity to charger's charge capacity.

[@blitzkrieg4689]

Only one light on cell 3 is on is mine broken?

[@robojax]

May be the battery is bad or the charger. Yet it with different item

[@isaacfragmatic4651]

I think its wrong. If the lipo is 5s and rated at 5200mah it will fill at 7 hours. If the balancer can output 700mah. If the battery is on series. The voltage increase. But if it is on parrallel the mah/Ah increase. Which in the case of lipo it is configure as series.

[@robojax]

The series and parallel doesn't matter. it is the total capacity that matters. We are feeding 700mAh to fill one battery of 5200mAh . If we charge 2 batteries of 2600mAh connected in parallel, then 2600+2600=5200mAh.

[@isaacfragmatic4651]

Robojax so therefore the energy calculation of lipo are differ from the other .?

[@robojax]

No. it is always the total capacity. The charger can supply in total (for example) 700mAh. You can feed it any ways you want.

[@gregkar2736]

i have the same charger, mine is shit, i gives different indication each time i reconnet the battery, for example i connect a used battery it shows all lights red, they never go green, i test the battery with a multimeter and it is fully charged, then i connect the battery to the charger and it shows full charged, i disconnect the battery, reconnect it and it shows not charged again, and so on :P

[@syedhelmie6711]

Why my battery still red after 4 hours charge

[@robojax]

If you did the math and the times has passed, two possibilities 1-dead batter 2- dead charger. So you need another battery and/or another charger to find the problem. Of course you can check it will multimeter but it is hard for me to explain.

[@HaveFaithInGod]

At 4:18 you plugged the batt in reversed. Black wire should have been to the right side.

the color on JST-XH has no standard. It is a connector that you can't connect incorrectly.

only one light is on with mines

[@robojax]

so it can either charges ONLY one cell or, the LED (light emitting diode) is bad. So leave the battery for charge and then check your battery's each cell. If all cell have charge, then only the LED is bad. If you see all cells are not charged, the the charger is bad.

[@peterzingler6221]

your calculations are totally wrong if you have a 5200mah 3 cell every cell has 5200mah

[@robojax]

No. when you read 5200mAh, it is the total capacity of battery. Drone of RC car doesn't draw current from each cell rather from just 2 wires. it is the charge wires to the individual cells that get separate voltage and current and that is to be able to chemically charge each cell based on it's own condition.

[@koma3333333k]

@@robojax each cell has indeed 5200mAh, but rating at voltage of one cell (3,7V nominal). In serial stack You do not add the capacity, you add the voltage. The 3S packet consisting of 3 cells, each with capacity of 5200mAh still results in 5200mAh, but at 11,4V nominal voltage . That is why the capacity rating of a whole packet is the same as for one cell. And yes, your calculation is simply "badshitt bananas". The packet (empty) should charge to full in around 7-8 hours. You should learn the basics first, before you try to teach others. I know, archeo digg site. but i just had to.
