Thumbs up Schedule Charge LIPO Battery.

I would like to know/have which Brand & Model possible to have this functions.

I knew my battery charging time (example 20 mins.) and my qualifying time is 11AM.

I would like to have function in my new charger. to schedule charging my battery. example if I want to use full battery pack. I must pluged my battery in to changer and set time to charge my battery at before 10.30AM (reserve time for transponder checked) batter will be full around 10.50AM.

I know in technical charger must have RTC (real time clock). but that good to be, if they charger lunch into the market and have they function.

please consider. if manufacture read this thread.

I thought about this, because I forgot to charge the battery. And I raced without full battery

All lipo charger manufacturers require that you never leave your lipos charging unattended. Therefore, no automatic charging without racer input !!!

If you are a tiny bit into electronics you could use a simple clock with an alarm function and interface the alarm signal to the startbutton of the charger.

Yes, it's never going to happen because of liability. Too much risk with unattended charging.

Last year, at an OutlawRC event called "Conquer the Carpet", there were two pit areas with unattended charging running high amp programs. One resulted in a fire. The owner of the other stationed returned after twenty minutes.
