    New Coming: XTAR VC4S charger which choose the optimal charging strategy

    I have wrote a critical commend on this forum post some weeks ago. Why is it gone now? There was a second person who also confirmed what i had wrote. For transparency: I wrote here some weeks ago, that the VC4S charger is killing batteries. Its using charging speed out of the...

    SkyRC iMAX B6 V2 charger - any reviews?

    The new B6 V2 looks great: https://www.skyrc.com/Charger/iMax/b6v2 It have for example a DC-DC Mode. For some unknown reason it cant go below 5V. Have someone understood why? Is the output unstable below 5V with no load and thats why they disabled under 5V in their firmware? The opensource...

    A quick look at XTAR Flagship Charger--Dragon VP4 Plus

    One of the main reason why i have recommended an other advanced charger from an other company and not the XTAR Dragon was the missing storage/store charging/discharging mode. If you would like to go awesome overkill on the future product, then add a DC/DC converstion mode to the probes like for...

    UPDATE: Looking for a dummy 18650 cell

    Re: Looking for a dummy 18650 cell Here a more simple solution. Take those ones: https://www.ebay.com/itm/254543040112 If you want to pass current, then solder a thin wire on the outside of the cell from top to bottom.

    2xAAA to Lithium replacement (side-by-side)

    You wrote li-ion. What voltage does the device support? Probably about 3 or 3.2V max would be what the double AAA-device is been designed to work at. Your idea seems to be to insert a li-ion cell that have 4.2V when fully charged. Have you checked the circuit of the device if it can work with...

    SkyRC — IFA 2014 — MC3000 charger-analyzer

    7histology, there have not been payed over 100$ for the advertised in the internet/forum "best" li-ion charger that exists and then not being able to charge really empty cells and have to buy an second one. I wrote that the broken charger was a 10$ one. If a new 10$ charger would been bought...

    SkyRC — IFA 2014 — MC3000 charger-analyzer

    The manufacturer told me after i asked him if the warranty should be used to fix the issue that really empty li-ion cells cant be charged and there was no warning anywhere on the MC-3000-package that i should use the wrong chemistry to charge up a bit. After many weeks of trying around i find...

    How many full charges can a standard eneloops handle before it goes bad?

    I had bad experience with non-LSD cells in cases wehre you dont use the non-LSD cells right up after they have been charged. Even in cases where you charge non-LSD cells to 100% and then use them after two weeks the eneloops always was the better solution. If someone want eneloop/LSD cells for...

    Test/Review of Charger SkyRC MC3000

    @HKJ Because it can be read on your website in many new reviews of new chargers in 2019 and 2020 that you are using the MC3000 to compare with, it would be great if you could retest the new revision of the MC3000 at some time. The new version i am talking about is the one with the two fans...

    Using nimh in clocks and tempeature meter

    I have made the experience that eneloop lite cells dont have any issue when they get discharged down to 0V. In my case they always got back up to notmal capacity. I used them without any issues in old clocks on the wall.

    AA cells for high cycle count

    Dont take ansmann 2800 cells. Those would loose capacity really fast. The cells you want are the light blue eneloop lite ones. To rise the capacitry (if required) just connect some of those in parallel. Those eneloop lite cells are to my experience the cells with the highest cycle count and the...

    SkyRC — IFA 2014 — MC3000 charger-analyzer

    "made up" and "damaged" is not true. The cells are working completely fine. They also charged up with the old and now broken (water got inside) cheap charger without any issues. It was some cheap 10$ charger and that worked perfectly fine. I have never ever seen anyones "blown up face" because...

    SkyRC — IFA 2014 — MC3000 charger-analyzer

    I wrote to the support. I get fast but fully useless answers. I told them in the first e-mail, that i have read in the internet, that pressing and holding the button-number of the slot could help. I also wrote them, that i tried it many times and this never changed anything. Their answer...

    Are the Ikea Ladda batteries just as good as Eneloops?

    Just look at the manufacturing country. China eneloops are also bad. Just japan eneloop but also japan ikea ladda are great. In japan there is just one company building LSD nimh cells and thats FDK. https://eneloop101.com/batteries/rewrapped-batteries/ Quote: "Made in Japan definitely...
