Fixed the ICE charger issue and also fixed a couple other small things with the charger info.

[MetalMan]

In the Lipo charger section, the ICE doesn't have a power output limit shown - it is 120watts. The TP-1010C can put out 210watts maximum. The Hyperion EOS 5i series can put out 50watts max. If you want to add the Astroflight 109, it can to up to 9s Lipo and 8amps, with a max. power output of 170watts. There is also an A123 version of the Astroflight 109, which can do 10s A123, 8amps, and 170watts max.

Sorry for the extra info., but I figure it might be useful for some others out there :).

Thanks MM! Where I didn't know the power rating, I put 0. And the TP charger power rating is an "oops" - I thought it was 300w.

And the extra information is perfect! Also, if there are any other noteworthy features (for the data table page), I can add that as well. Like if the charger can do other battery types, if it has an adjustable CC/CV threshold, etc.

Truly awesome work Brian. I have used this site so many times, and it has helped many times to decide on gearing, etc.

Big thanks!!!

It would be great if you could find the info for the Superbrain 989 otherwise I'll be asking lots of questions later on, lol. :005:

[BrianG]

You're welcome.

Supply the info for the 989 (and any others) and I'll put it in. :)

I figure I do the hard part of coding it all, you could at least get some data for me. ;)

[jnev]

Yah, I know, I'm lazy, lol. I'll need to find someone on the forums with a 989 to give you the info.

what cha need? i have a 989 i can help u!

pm me with what u need for it!:018:

- max cell count
- max current
- power limit
- if it runs on 12v
- if it runs on 120v AC
- whether you can adjust the CC/CV threshold
- efficiency
- any other noteworthy features.

It's OK if you don't know the efficiency (the code assumes 80% as a ballpark figure if it isn't known). This value is not something commonly given, I just happened to measure it on my EOS 7i a while back.

Thanks in advance! You'll be contributing to a good cause. :)

ok i will help as far as i can, i mite ask ???'s to how i figure out the stuff lol... but tomrow, everyone here is sleeping, and i and going to bed soon lol

but from what i know

the ps it comes with is 15.8 volts i THINK i need to double cheack

it says on the box 10 amp ac/dc charger, so idk.. cant say if it runs on 12 volts as i dont have anything to run it with other then the ps it comes with... 120 ac, idk, what ever voltage in the us is is what its going to always be at... need to have her on and look around for the others... and idk what or how to cheack alot of this as i never cared lol, so if u could help when i need to then that id be great!

[BrianG]

That's OK. I just went to the MRC website and got the data. They didn't list the power limit, but since the included power supply delivers 10A at 15v (150w), I assumed a 120w power limit since they probably figured in a 25% margin, not to mention charger efficiency. If this is incorrect, someone can let me know...

k good lol now i cant screw up sumthin LOL

Much better! However, the regular AF109 can only do 9s Lipo.

Fixed...

Great. Thanks Brian for adding the 989. Really appreciate it.

I was working on something like this minus all the extra features. Now I'm thinking I might have the basic calculations and then add extra stuff to find roll center and all that dealing with the car setup.

Heres the project page. http://sourceforge.net/projects/rc-gear
