Who uses one of these and opinions needed. Seems like a lot of charger for the money. One review says it gives a better charge then the 308 icharger. Looking for feedback. THNX

Adam Drake is using this charger and He likes it. I have 2 of these chargers and no problem. Very easy to use and reasonable price.

you having any troubles with the toggle switch having a mind of its own if the table is bumped. Mine cancels the charging when the table is bumped.

Anyone have any issues/solutions with the toggle switch. Mine will cancel the charge if the table its on gets bumped, the switches are just so sensitive.

Hello Matt,
It definitely sounds as though your toggle switch has gone bad. Send the charger in to us and we can replace the switch if necessary. Use these instructions on how to send in an item for warranty.

I have the combo, works great. You get a whole lot of useful features for not a lot of money. Works amazing, easy to use, small, light, affordable, great customer service, whats not to like! I don't charge at 40 amps, so anything over 10 is a waste for me since i only charge 2s.

One question is where to get replacement double ended banana plugs?

Get a hold of our Customer Service Center and i am sure we can get you a set. (As long as you are in the Continental US.)

Thanks!!! Just the fact that you guys included an extra set was awesome, but we are racers and prone to.....loose stuff!

Drake, Mayberry Help! Just got this charger and when I try to charge a 1s battery it gives me the error 'cell error voltage invalid'. I set it to lipo charge not lipo balance because its not balancing any cells. I set it to 3.7 volts for number of cells. I have even done the resting cell voltage check and it tells me that the resting cell voltage is 3.00v. I don't understand the TVR, could it be that?

I think you are referring to TVC, (Terminal Voltage Control) which only effects the ending voltage on either a charge or discharge. Double check that your charge leads are in good working order. If there is nothing wrong with your leads, then the only other thing would be to send the charger in for service evaluation.

I figured that I'm going to check it again with some other guys who know this charger, if that don't work I'll send it in.

You need to make sure that you are in the Lipo Charge menu, not balance mode.

Set the cell count to 1S and and set your amperage accordingly.

Pretty simple. If it is not working on this setting, then there is an issue with the charger.
