Default Charge more than one battery?

Can this charger charge more than one battery at a time? The X-10 one. http://www.neumotors.com/Site/Chargers.html

How? It only has one screen so can't it only monitor one battery at a time?

Yes it can. You just need parallel balance cables.

^^^ Exactly, but its limited by the 10amps max charge rate. To charge lipos in parallel at above 1C charge rates, you need 20amps max charge rate from a charger.

This one looks like Neu had iCharger make one for them, so it might already be an iCharger, just rebadged. Look at the 206b or 208b with 20amps max charge rate and either 300 or 350watts of charger output power.


If you want two separate charger outputs, you need to look for a dual type charger.
