Yeah, I think im gonna go and snag up two of those. I also can't find out what the maximum battery mah size this charger can handle, anyone know?
|
I dont think there is such as thing as a maximum capacity it can handle, its more a case of charge rate; it will take twice as long to charge a 10,000mah pack vs a 5,000mah pack, given the maximum charge rate of 5amps. Seeing as these chargers are limited to 50watts, a 2s 5000mah pack will charge in 1 hour @ 1C charge rate, a 3s 5000mah pack will take 1 1/4 hours, since the charge rate will drop below 1C in order to not excede the charger's power rating ( 63watts required for 1C charge ).

Ok, I just remember seeing some chargers with like a 9000mAh battery limit or something like that. I do realize that beyond 5000mAh it will take a bit extra time to charge but I could still charge two Lipos at once if I got two of them vs single 8amp passport ultra. I think I still come out charge time ahead if my math is correct
For a theoretical example: Four 2s 7000mAh Lipos w/single Passport Ultra @ 7amps = 1 per Lipo = over 4 hours to charge Four 2s 7000mAh Lipos w/ two AC6 @ 5amps = approx 1.5 per set = approx 3 hours to charge If I factor in doing a 3S 5000mAh Lipo or above i'm looking at at least 1.5 hours per Lipo on each AC6 due to wattage limit. Hmmmmm...... |
So wait, how does the charger known when to stop charging a Lipo after a certain capacity point if it doesn't allow you enter the batteries max mAh capacity? I had to do that with my Triton 2 EQ but I don't see where you enter that on this charger.

Mental telepathy!

it goes by voltage. the charger stops when the cells are at 4.2v each. :yes: |
one hyperion charging at 2c (14amps) will charge all 4 2s 7000mah batteries in 2 hours:intello:
could even charge two at a time, but you would be limited to 10 amps at 4s (2 2s in series) |
