Tenergy T180 100W Balance Charger Discharger, Touch Screen RC Battery Charger for NiMH/NiCd/Li-Po/Li-Fe Packs, Durable Metal Housing, LiPo Battery Charger w/ Tamiya/JST/EC3/HiTec/Deans Connectors

". This is a piece of a single sheet of paper that you unfold and struggle to read. There are no trouble shooting instructions, only error codes are listed, but there is no information about any of them. This is by far the worst set of instructions I have There is a problem with the machine. Battery types such as LiFePO4 cannot be charged. As I called tech support, a young woman who did not know anything tried to help by passing my questions on to someone I'm not allowed to speak with. The don't know what to do. Last but not least, I had to ask for the manager who finally came on the phone and tried to help, but he knew nothing about that As a result, tech support does not exist. I was told by "Jack" that he would mail a replacement and that there would be a return label in the box. As such, I left town for a five-day trip with the expectation that the new one would be here when I returned and that the bad would arrive the following My email address comes up in the email I got tonight from Jack, telling me that the new I will be mailed once I return the old one. I have ended my relationship with this knowledgeable company, so now that won't happen for 5 days, well, it won't happen at all because it doesn't interest me anymore. It is not necessary for you to deal with these clowns since there are so many other chargers to choose from. In the end, the manager said he was in charge and will not allow me to speak to any of the other employees. According to him, they have a CEO, but he refuses to respond to email. Honestly, I will never do business with this company again, and I will never recommend it to anyone. It was my habit to buy their batteries in the past (which failed far sooner than other brands) but no longer do so. My plan is to contact both the Fremont CA and the Better Business Bureau. If anyone else comes to mind, I can contact the Chamber of Commerce. My bad product will be returned to them promptly, and I warn anyone using this company's products or services to avoid them at all costs. When it comes to simple customer issues and expectations, they truly do not get it.

A charger is one of the most important pieces of equipment you will require if you want your LiPo batteries to last. It can balance charge any battery and charge and discharge In addition, an 11 percent fee is charged. It takes about 20 to 30 minutes to charge a 1v 1100mah LiPo. The charging of a battery is a fairly simple procedure. It is first necessary to select the type of battery, whether it is a LiPo, NiMh, NiCD, etc. Next, you specify the Volts and the Amps that should appear on the battery label. When you plug in the charger, it will automatically detect how many batteries are in it. Hold the CHRG button for a few seconds, and the device will begin to charge. The device will beep when it is finished charging, alerting you that it is finished. This product has no on or off button, which is the only complaint I have. You should unplug it to turn it off. After you plug it in, it automatically turns on and you should unplug it again to turn it off. In addition, it has no standby mode once it is plugged in, so the screen always stays at full brightness until it is unplugged. It is not a good idea to use the cheaper $20 balance chargers since they can only charge your batteries and not discharge them. LiPo batteries will inflate and lose the ability to hold a charge as a result. You must discharge your battery once you have finished using it in order to store it. This means the battery will be discharged to an appropriate level for safe storage, so that it will still be charged but not completely drained when you need it. In addition to losing its ability to hold a charge, a completely discharged battery will lose its ability to perform. You will be able to prolong the life of your batteries by using this charger. In the past, I used a $20 smart charger to replace LiPo batteries every two months. I am still using the LiPos I purchased about half a year ago without any issues after using this charger to drain and charge them. This is a great charger that you should get. I really like how easy it is to use and how well-built it is.

However, you still need to know how to handle it. 2 of them were purchased specifically in order to refresh a NiHM module in my Prius, which came with a faulty cell after 280K miles. Discharging individual battery modules to a preset voltage, recharging to full and repeating multiple times is a process that involves discharging each module to a preset voltage under relatively low load. As a result, the chemistry inside each of the modules is able to recapture much of what was lost on the batteries in the case of the so-called "crash" It is often described as "memory" (oversimplification). It is a long process, so using a "smart" charger/discharger that has a web interface that monitors the modules progress will eliminate all the guesswork and have a host of safety features in case something goes wrong. By taking all the "hard" part out, they promise to simplify your life. You can count on these units to deliver! It is a pretty basic set of instructions, so make sure to watch all the "how to" videos on youtube posted by many folks who have picked it up.

The number of reviews I write is not very high. Because I am a big Amazon shopper, that should be what I use on a regular basis. As far as RC is concerned, I am new to it. I’m not a beginner, but I don’t know as much as I should Lipo batteries are not just batteries. There are many other things to consider. When you learn them, they aren't that hard to work with, and this charger takes the guess work out of it for you. The fact that it balances them as well as uses the storage mode is amazing to me. It does both of them as well. You can go up to 6 seconds. In any case, this little charger is a great value for the money - a good choice.

As I wrote before, this is my fourth battery charger. I mostly use it With the easy-to-use features, I find it to be the most convenient and easiest to use Touch the touch screen to view You can view the screen on your computer. You can change the loudness of the audio alerts, which I like. A line graph displays the progress of the charging process, as well as a picture showing the status of the A charging cable is included that is compatible with practically every connector type. The charger I use the most is this one. There will be no disappointment for you.
