Thining new charger

[pakk]

I meant thinking, sorry.

So I have two chargers and here are my problems.

Thunder Power 610c

Only charges my cells to 4.18 per cell. There is a new software that allows me to charge my packs to 4.22 per cell, but that only works with 2cell packs. I would like to charge my single cell packs to that. Also for me to get the update, I have to either pay shipping both ways to the company or buy there $30 adapter. I wouldn't mind paying for it, but I need it to work for my single cell packs. Support is pretty good so far.

Thunder t6
Charges my 2cell packs to 8.44, but not my single cell. It charges my single cell packs to 4.3v. A little too much for comfort. Horrible support.


So I am looking for 2 things in a new charger.
1. The ability to charge my cells to what I want.
2. Good support.

suggestions?

I would double check the roar rules as they are lowering voltage max back down

which is all the more reason to why I would like to be able to fine adjust my end voltage.

Only chargers I've seen that do this are the Hyperion Duo3 and the 0720iNet3 as described on the Hyperion charger support page - "Note that v3.2 firmware for NET and DUO add a Terminal Voltage Control setting (TVC), intended ONLY for expert users and racers, completely at their own risk, which allows LIPO and LIFE packs to be charged in excess of recommended cell terminal voltages."

You can find a link to the manual here -

In my experience, their service has been great, only have had on prob and the dealer sent me a new charger without waiting on my returning the defective one.

Duo 3 is a monster . No regrets.

That duo 3 looks good. It is too bad that you have to pay so much to have a feature that probably had little affect on the production cost. The cost on those chargers are their ability to charge at high W and A. Two things I don't need at this time, but future proofing is something that is always good.

Thanks. I'll look into the charger and maybe buy it for myself as an early xmas gift. I been pretty good this year.

Just wanted to share that the DUO 3 does NOT allow you to adjust the end voltage on single cells. I was real close to picking one up. So the search goes on.
