cheers mate for checking this one out and also putting features and such into context, a lot of information to chew on for a beginner like me just watched another video on this charger and the reviewer had either extremely bad luck with 4 out of 5 brekaing or already broken, or the manufacturer needs to work out some kinks, before this it will be reliable th-cam.com/video/6iOVhe1HOB0/w-d-xo.html
I can't speak to that reviewer. I asked RaceDayQuads whether they had any issues with failure rate, complaints, and returns, and they said nothing out of the ordinary. If these were failing left and right, I think RDQ would stop selling them. RDQ has sold hundreds or more of these. That's a better sample than one reviewer who nobody can figure out why his units died.
who in recent times has bought one that failed? seems like any complaints of failed units are from over 6 months ago (pretty sure it came out 8 months ago) and most times you hear of failed units its a story of "i head of a guy".
You can use this as a standalone battery checker by connecting the balance connector to the unit without any DC source connected to it. No need to go through the menus.
The 'charge' function allows you to charge non-RC type battery packs that have a built-in BMS. I use that feature for charging various cordless power tool packs.
Is it possible to charge a car battery with it aswell? It does support lead batteries... That would be awesome to have this as an emergency charger aswell
any idea how to get it to work or did i just get a defective unit. my DJI charger says DC in too high (which was a surprise i was thinking it'd be low if the printing on the DJI wall wort is to be trusted)) but every other usb wall wort, port, cable, etc didn't even have enough umph to turn the damn thing on. Plugging a battery in the input side seems to power it on no issue but that doesn't exactly leave me with much of anything other than an expensive battery checker.
Trickle charge is meant for NiMH packs, where you have to keep a charge rate of C/20 or less in order to fully balance the cells if they're being charged in series as usual.
this is weird though, the setting changes nothing on the charger as far as i can tell you cant set the current low enough to get C/20 for most packs... so you cant trickle charge?
Joshua your timing is amazing, just looking for a extra travel charger to be able to charge on the go but also to charge more batteries in shorter time when at home. I just did my first real proper FPV flight today with HDZero Goggles, Rapidfire, Tango 2 and a Geprc Mark 2 analog, it was amazing!! Thanks to you Joshua!
Plug a battery into the balance port with no DC input. Boom, battery checker. I dumped all my toolkit RC gear for skyrc after I had a dodgy M9 that had no solder over the high amp tracks and another that arrived dead.
I’ve had my sky rc charger for 10 years now. It’s a lot bigger with rc cars. They actually made counterfeit ones so you had to make sure you got a holographic sticker on the back. Also I’m not sure who bought who but they are definitely merged with Radiomaster. I am probably going to get this because it would be nice to charge different battery types at the same time. Good review JB
I already ordered mine from China a week or two back based on the PD input as a backup for my existing ToolkitRC M4 Pocket which I use for trips away/abroad, however it looks like it'll probably take the place of that as it looks way more capable.
@@121simi was considering doing that. having 2 channels would be really nice. did you mount the PD trigger board on the charger somehow, or do you just have a little dongle?
@@circularly It's just a short dongle. I wrapped the trigger board in transparent heat shrink, to still be able to see the LEDs indicating the output voltage. But this is optional.
I have a 240w Dell laptop power supply (19.5v a 13ish amps) that I ordered used off eBay for $20 delivered and an old trusted iSDT Q6 and it’s about the most versatile and and affordable charging kit I could come up with. …better than this in my opinion
Fantastic review, Joshua! Thanks! 😃 Really good little charger indeed! Perhaps I know what to buy when I retire my ToolkitRC M6. 😬 Anyway, stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
About your SkyRC comment, I really like my SkyRC D100v2. I planned to get the Hitec X2 but couldn't find one in stock. I found its blue twin by SkyRC, though. From what I can tell Hitec is a respected brand, so I put my faith in SkyRC under the assumption they make at least one of Hitec's chargers.
they actualy sell extension cables for everything i just ordered one from ebay and saw different sets and one set had bunch cables xt60 to all kinds of stuff
My charger setup is two power supplies connected to 4 isdt nano q6. But all my chargers lost their ability to balance charge because all the Q6's cell one balancing breaks for some reason. Literally just last week I placed a Banggood order for 2 ToolkitRc M6D's. Still for bang for buck toolkitrc was a better buy. Just hope it's a good quality charger.
If you have one cell constanty out of balance, check that your cell checker is not broken. The chances that multiple chargers all died in such a way at the same time is small.
Reviews are popping up that 80% of these chargers are failing. Can you say you’ve never heard off or seen this happen during the testing phase? I ordered one off RDQ via this video and link and don’t wanna get burned for it.
for anyone else reading this. this comment talking about ONE specific video ONE guy made who had 4 out of 5 fail. yes there seems to be , or at least has been since anything im reading is 7 or 8 months ago, a fairly high failure rate with these charges but the commet making it seem like 80 of all chargers being reviewed failing is just false.
who in recent times has bought one that failed? seems like any complaints of failed units are from over 6 months ago (pretty sure it came out 8 months ago) and most times you hear of failed units its a story of "i head of a guy".
I bought two since it looks awesome, but already found an annoying bug which is completely a software bug. I use this with a LIPO as power source so I set the cut-off to 14.5V, but I also use it as a desktop charger with a 12V PSU, if I go from a LIPO to the 12V PSU It get's stuck on the cutoff error and you can't even acknowledge the error to continue to the menu and lower the cutoff voltage, you have to go back to a lipo or another higher than 14.5V power source to go into the menu, it's super annoying. It means if you're out and about and accidently set your cutoff voltage to higher than what you have on hand, you could potentially have a bricked charger with you until you get home. Disappointed no one though of that simple scenario.
I really like the H605 for a tiny travel charger. Combined with a USBC PD adapter and a 100w wall wart it's a compact package. Would be awesome if someone made something like that with USBC PD natively.
Ive been useing the isdt q6 nano for 2 yrs now never had 1 problem great little charger ppl ust to complain about the button they just didnt know how to use it thetes short press and a long press
The original B6 for me was the only charger that didn't have correct safety checks and almost resulted in a battery fire (it let me charge a 3s pack at 4s voltage even though the balance plug was plugged in). It also died quite quickly. I wouldn't trust skyrc, especially when there are more reputable ones for a similar price (e.g. isdt q6 nano). Also the USB C functionality can be replicated on any charger by buying a PD trigger board (preferably 20v if your PSU supports it) and soldering on an xt60. Admittedly, it is extra work and more manufacturers should build in this functionality.
Is there something like this that takes USB-C input that can charge 2-4 of the 2S/3S Packs with XT30 Connections, for the FlyLens 85 and Pavo 20 Pro? I already have enough power stations I don’t want to buy some big lipo battery that’s less safe that I will need to also buy another home charger for lol.
Looks cool but I just want a tiny charger like this with 2x XT60 output for parallel fieldcharging so I dont have to use a parallelboard and lipo's with the same starting voltage.
Very strange charger. He charged the battery 18650, previously discharged it with this device. The charge showed 715 mA, then this battery immediately inserted into a Liitokala and it was ahead of another 700+mA. The limit of the charge was set at 4.2V. I checked the same experiment on other batteries.
About the other supported battery types except Lipo and Liion: Could I basically charge my car battery with this too? And other batteries, like 18650, AA,...? This would be huge
2:00 I honestly don't think it is a good idea to recommend people to overcharge their lipos, even if it's just 10mV. You are not going to get any significant amount of additional energy into it, and let's be honest: calibration accuracy of devices like these is usually within ~100mV, and I'd absolutely prefer my device to undercharge by 100mV than it is to overcharge, and any recommendation to overcharge even by only 10mV is more likely asking for trouble than it is going to bring in terms of more energy stored in your Lipo. Packs will usually drop back to below 4.2V quickly, but that really does not mean compensating your charge is a good idea by any means. It's really not a recommendation I'd dare to make.
@@MegaChickenPunch i do not know. I did however avoid this charger after watching some vids that there were a bunch that just stopped working. I went with the ISDT 608ac charger instead which comes with everything.
4:12 c'mon man. your power supply is 65 watts so thats whats going in, the charger doesnt have 100% efficiency and zero power loss so you get less out. the watts on the screen is what its putting into the battery. you know all this. acording to those numbers your charger is about 90% efficient. get one of those usb power meters so you know exactly whats going into the charger (they are cheap enough and super fun) and you will be surprised.
After the power goes out at the input, is there such a thing that the charging process does NOT automatically resume, the device announces an error, and it is necessary to remove the error and press "start" again?
It has Li ion, LiFe too. So I want to know will it charge 3S, 4S serries 12v, 14v battery packs (with bms) just out if the xt60 output and auto turn off?
I want a dual channel charger like the hota but I want only DC, as I have several high current DC power supply's but I NEED a menu wheel that matches the orientation of the menu. why the hota wheel is side to side when the menu is vertical is beyond me. also sub $100 would be great.
Reaon why SkyRC is not very popular? Because of their B6 and the quintillion of rebranded and cloned versions that like to burn down houses. They have a veeeeery bad reputation with safety.
Got one.... my fan sputtered on and off on the first use. doesn't make me feel that great about the quality... also... my charger with USB-C goes to 100w, not 80w... I have a Anker PD 3.0 USB-C and it was designed for macbook's, def hits 100w on the startup screen. and i know the side of the box does indeed say 80w but the manual says it goes 100w on PD 3.0
wtf are you talking about? a fully charged lipo is 4.2 volts. he saying set the charger to 4.21 so after the voltage sags after charging it settles to a fully charge 4.2.
I think this may be replacing my old isdt q6 pro. The scroll wheel has been starting to fail and it's been tough to find another option to fill that niche.
There are videos on how to fix the scrolling wheel. The isdt q6 is more powerful and (in my opinion) from a more trustworthy brand than skyrc, so why replace it.
@@xgofpv4565 That's good to know. If I can fix the scroll wheel I'd be happy to keep using it. Apart from that is been a great charger. I fly micros most of the time, so even parallel charging 6 at a time this new one would have enough power capacity for the majority of my charging, and with a usb c pd battery bank that makes charging 1s packs more flexible.
Hey i have the b6ac neo version of this charger and i was wondering about discharge current its max is 2A ( min is 0.1A ) is it safe to leave it at 2A discharge current for every battery? If not how do i determine the correct current for each battery?
Why can't they make a type-c charger with a nicer screen, the ToolKitRC M4/M7 needs an external cable and this SkyRC has a crappy screen lol, oh wait no ISDT do have the 608PD
I can run it off my car battery, which I always have in my car with me. What's the point of a charger with built in AC power supply, if you're out and about, and aren't near AC power?
There is literally one guy on FaceBook who has made a personal crusade out of spreading the claim that this charger is defective. There was one YT creator who said that he got like 5 of them and they failed. That's it. I asked the owner of RaceDayQuads whether they had any issue with it and they said the failure/return rate was normal. If RaceDayQuads was getting a zillion complaints because these were fialing, RDQ would stop selling them. They haven't. Everything is fine. There was one YT Creator who had some failed units. Nobody knows why. Nobody else can replicate his result. Everything is fine.

Yep, gotta RTFM ;)
I was just marching myself down to the comment section to say this 😁its a nice feature I don't need to pack a cell checker.
I love when Bardwell gets excited for product features like when he finds the resistance meter built in and then tells the thing to shut up.
The 52W via your USB-C Supply make sense I think It has to boost the 20V up from the USB-C and such regulators often have an efficiency of about 80%.
The 'charge' function allows you to charge non-RC type battery packs that have a built-in BMS. I use that feature for charging various cordless power tool packs.
I have a dead DJI Mavic battery, winder if this would help with that one dead cell...
Is it possible to charge a car battery with it aswell? It does support lead batteries... That would be awesome to have this as an emergency charger aswell
If you update the firmware you can disable the startup warning by enabling and disable "warning" in system settings.
Hey, i think it actualy works like a battery checker when you only plug in the balance lead and its not powered otherwise...
It just takes a sec
Yep it sure does
I have this charger for a few weeks now, it's amazingly good for its size.
any idea how to get it to work or did i just get a defective unit. my DJI charger says DC in too high (which was a surprise i was thinking it'd be low if the printing on the DJI wall wort is to be trusted)) but every other usb wall wort, port, cable, etc didn't even have enough umph to turn the damn thing on.

You can just plug a battery via balance lead without power in for the battery check - it'll boot up into the right menu.

There are videos on how to fix the scrolling wheel. The isdt q6 is more powerful and (in my opinion) from a more trustworthy brand than skyrc, so why replace it.
@@xgofpv4565 That's good to know. If I can fix the scroll wheel I'd be happy to keep using it. Apart from that is been a great charger. I fly micros most of the time, so even parallel charging 6 at a time this new one would have enough power capacity for the majority of my charging, and with a usb c pd battery bank that makes charging 1s packs more flexible.
@JOSHUABARDWELL what If you use the toolkit rc usb c to xt60 cord from a pd power supply?
backwards + and - how could they screw that up?
Isn't this basically a toolkitrc M7?
I wonder if it uses GaN circuitry but I don't see that mentioned in the description
I see that the B6 Nex uses GaN. More than the double the price for me though.
Hey i have the b6ac neo version of this charger and i was wondering about discharge current its max is 2A ( min is 0.1A ) is it safe to leave it at 2A discharge current for every battery? If not how do i determine the correct current for each battery?
Yes that's fine. All the batteries you use can support 2A discharge no problem.
Do u need the white thing plugged in I’m new to this
Yes definitely you need it. th-cam.com/video/n3urBpFIBgY/w-d-xo.htmlsi=W_Jd7dcB-M81w2aS
Can i use xiaomi 30W phone charger to power it?
This looks like the modern days ISDT SC-608
Was going to get one of these. You made them all sell out. 😵💫
Hey Joshua can the geprc cL25 handle gopro mini 11 while flying in mild freestyle style?
No it's too heavy
Why can't they make a type-c charger with a nicer screen, the ToolKitRC M4/M7 needs an external cable and this SkyRC has a crappy screen lol, oh wait no ISDT do have the 608PD
I have an XT60 power supply
And it comes in Nintendo Switch colors!
Is this compatible sir with 2s 450mah Lipo battery thanks
yes, it is
@@pipoypipoy7796 thank u
ofc! i use it for my 1400mah 6s
Can I charge lipos with this using a xt60 connector from a battery bank?
Yes.
@@JoshuaBardwell Wow that was a quick reply lol. Thanks!
yo@@JoshuaBardwell can i just use crocodile clips to xt60 connected to a car battery for this charger
What's the point of a tiny charger when you still have to carry a huge battery or power supply with you?
Those pd chargers are tiny! Not much bigger than your phone charger. And you can get those car chargers with 65W for easy use on the road
I can run it off my car battery, which I always have in my car with me. What's the point of a charger with built in AC power supply, if you're out and about, and aren't near AC power?
Guess I'm just not the target buyer for this product since I'm coming from the perspective of a racer charging 4-5 batteries at a time at 4A each.
bad charger, after a few charge, he does not longuer work
Heard theae malfunctioned a lot
There is literally one guy on FaceBook who has made a personal crusade out of spreading the claim that this charger is defective. There was one YT creator who said that he got like 5 of them and they failed. That's it. I asked the owner of RaceDayQuads whether they had any issue with it and they said the failure/return rate was normal. If RaceDayQuads was getting a zillion complaints because these were fialing, RDQ would stop selling them. They haven't. Everything is fine. There was one YT Creator who had some failed units. Nobody knows why. Nobody else can replicate his result. Everything is fine.
@@JoshuaBardwell thanks
My fan failed in 1 cycle.
nice ;)
This would be incredible in combination with a solar cell kit for phones on the field
