Lipo charger Help
Im looking for a lipo charger that can charger up to a 6s and life batts thats dose not need a power supply
|
To charge a 6s battery that is 5600mAh, you will need a charger with at around 200 watts output (150 watts minimum) to charge at 1c. If you need to charge higher capacity batteries or higher c-rating, the power requirement will be even greater. Hyperion makes some good chargers that are AC/DC that fit that bill.
It is unfortunate, but DC chargers on a good power supply do a better job on large capacity high voltage batteries. |

Like others have said, ditch the built in power supply idea and pick up a DC charger and use a converted server PSU. The following one is nice and compact. Cost less than $30 on ebay.
http://www.rchelination.com/setting-...-power-supply/ As for the charger, pickup either an FMA PL6 charger or one of the Junsi iChargers that fits your needs. |
Bite the bullet, buy icharger or Fma.....
Progressive sells kits that include a pelican type case. Not cheap but very portable. |
i really don't need one that portable just something that won't take up much space on my desk.
i had a Hyperion with a ps but it took to much space on my desk. im not racing im bashing |

i picked up a imex charger to hold me down for now.
what would be a good dc charger and ps combo to go with thats will get the job done |
Revolectrix Power Lab 6 is super-versatile DC charger and capable of 1000 watts. Progressive RC sells some convenient combos to suit your needs. I have the 600W power supply and it is more than enough. There are certainly smaller power supplies available.
