The awesomeness of this video actually starts at 3:30 skip everything before that. After 3:30, it's an extremely informative video, well done.

I just want to thank you so much for helping me. Ive been trying to learn how to use this thing before pulling the trigger, youve saved me lots of time. Thanks :)

[@chanreunleng795]

Much appreciated for the video. Was able to revive a few LiPos, 👍

[@nickrupp2336]

Thank you, I just ordered this charger. Your video really helped me get an understanding about this.

[@myerslynch]

Most useful video I came across for basic charging, thanks!

[@Rath-Angkor-Thom]

The best and concise tutorial! Thanks

[@HJC1950]

Install the ChargeMaster software onto a laptop. Then use the PC connection port to communicate between your laptop and the charger. Makes it easier to choose settings and also gives information while charging or discharging.

[@sumdood2035]

Even though they are both a B6 V2, the Strictly DC-jack powered model seems better. It has a graphical fuel gauge (bars) along with the percent, and a few other features that the AC model doesn't seem to have. You'd think it would be the opposite. Only downside is that you have to buy a separate laptop style power brick for it.

thank you for the video, it helped me to set the charger. Greetings from Poland

Thank you I’m the kind of guy I can read the manual 100x’s and be confused- show me once with your hands and I got it 😂🤣🤣🤣

have try using it for LiFEpo4 battery with this charger

[@sierensr]

Thank you; Very helpful video!

Bro your hipe'n this thing up, reviews are supposed to be unbiased! Haha

[@TheOneUK1111]

Does anyone know if any suitable adapters you can power this from a car cigarette lighter socket? (UK). It seems it can take a DC input between 11-18v.

[@adolfredohernandez9439]

You can do DIY

I could use a little advice on choosing a charger. I have narrowed it down to this charger and a Turnigy Charger. However I just started reading about the B6 V2 Mini charger but I don't understand the differences in features between this one and the one in the video. Any help would be appreciated.

[@RC_Films_]

Ken I think either will do just fine. Both are well known and reputable brands that perform well. I've had no troubles with the imax. Just make sure you get the real one and not the fake one if you decide to get the imax charger.

[@DavidBcc]

@@RC_Films_ Every single seller says they're original. It would help knowing where to buy the originals.

[@RC_Films_]

@@DavidBcc amazon has plenty of them and if they show an authentication sticker with the skyrc logo it should be fine. Avoid Chinese sellers though

[@cwatson42785]

The mini doesn't come with a ac adapter (plug to plug into wall outlet) so you would need to buy a DC to ac plug separate I believe.

Need the cable assembly that plugs into the right side of the charge into the white connectors.

They are on the battery

[@bigl6322]

@@shawnconnolly5525 I have a 4 cell battery, but the connector on the charger has a 7 pin capability. Does that plug one starring from the - pin, or the #1 pin?... the manual is vague and the print is so small I can’t tell...

can i use this to balance charge my phantom 4 drained battery ?? as normal charging is not working on these intelligent battery

[@albidry]

In the dark we don't know what you pressed

[@longboardlouie5816]

Is there a sequence to follow when connecting charger, balance lead, and battery?

[@cwatson42785]

No you just plug them all in and then start the charge. I don't follow any set way to plug in. Just plug it all in.

So S stands for cell...?

Yes

[@openachiu2909]

@@damson2809 S is Series, as opposed to Parallel. the two cells in his battery pack are arranged in series, so the voltage adds up.

How much Ampere i should need tu charge, 14.8V 50C 2500mah battery???

[@fernandoferraz3527]

2.5 Amps

[@longboardlouie5816]

At 5:35 you mentioned charging your battery always at 1C, what does this mean?

[@cwatson42785]

I don't know what he meant by that but you just wanna make sure you charge at the right amps. If you have a 3000mah battery you charge at 3a. If you have a 5000mah lipo you charge at 5amp. If that makes sense to you.

[@longboardlouie5816]

@@cwatson42785 yes, makes sense, thanks ✌

[@davidfarmer2049]

No notes on hooking it up??. Also folks as the guy 👇says below nothing happens till 3.30 . Not for beginners.

[@davidbob892]

how much time did it takes to charge 5000mAh?

[@johnrodriguez2439]

Well it says it can output 6 amps So, 1 hour, heres why 5000mah at 1c for charging is equal to 5 amps, you usualy never what to charge more then 1c of your pack for longevity. So lets say we have a 2200mah battery. Youd charge it at 1c which is 2.2 amps.
