With a true 2,1 A USB source can I get 0,5A per each slot? I hear that is possible to not get the 0,5A per slot even with a 2,1A power source.
Thanks for reply
I've had two of them.
To answer your question, maybe, or maybe not.
I've charged up two 26650s that were near empty (3.5v) and got 1000mAh for three consecutive hours, almost perfectly--1000mAh/hr., but that was the exception, not the rule.
Most of the time, especially with 4 slots filled and my Apple 12w wall wart, I don't seem to be getting 500mAh per hour. Closer to a 375mA rate. Same with 2 slots...680mAh per hour.
I bought it not because it's a fast, or a great charger, but because it runs on USB 5v supplies and I have a 14w USB solar panel, so I can charge up more than one cell/battery compared to my Xtar XP1 and MC1+ chargers.
It's a safe and proper charger that's not very fast, much like my NiteCore i4 v.2 charger. If you want 4 cells to be charged fast, get an Opus BT-3400/3100, or two Xtar VP2s.
