Looks to me like its specs are 5 amps @ 5s which would make it a limited 100 watt charger

It would be capable of charging a 5000mah 4s pack at 5 amps

Much better options around for the money, including the Icharger 106b+ mentioned earlier in the thread

Cheers

Not sure its a 100watt charger based on the lipo specs - that's no diff than the Accucel-6 which is rated for 1 - 6S and is only 50watts.

The 1-14cell NiMh at 5a spec is what makes it look like its 100watts charger.


I don't understand why they don't simply say what the power output really is. Its like they're hiding something to try and justify the $170 price tag. LRP should know we need/want to know a charger's output power.

Not for that kind of money when you can get a 50watt charger thats just as good for $55, or get a 350watt, 20amp max charge rate charger for the same money.
