Synchronous mode basically uses two channels to charge one. Standard mode you max at 15amp on all 4 channels. Synchronous mode allows you to do 25amps at 500 watts. It does this by synchronizing the two channels to power one.
I’m still rocking the 406Duo that I got as my very first “real” charger when I got serious about FPV in late 2015. That thing is a tank and refuses to stop doing everything I need it to do, plus I have it in a Rigid tool chest with two of those 1200W power supplies, so it’s reasonably portable (it’ll go in the car, but obviously not taking it on the plane). If I had to get a new charger, there’s no doubt in my mind this would be it. I’d still run it off the DC power supplies at home so I could get full beans from it, but it’s nice that it has the AC option when you’re on the road…
I just bought the imars 300 duel. I really like it 150w per channel on ac. I can charge 6 4s 1500mah batteries on one channel it’s a game changer. I always thought it was really dumb idea to put a 20w usb-c on a charger Hota. However I don’t think I could ever go back to a 200w charger anyway. This 65w usb-c seems way more practical for soldering. I also like how you can get 200 watts on two channels with sync. I wonder if it will last, tool kit hasn’t been known for dependability. Very cool charger and great review!
Can you set up profiles for various batteries? Ie 3s 2200 battery, 4s 3400 profile. Minimizing all the clicking when charging different batteries…. I didn’t see this in the video
I'm using an ISDT P30 as my main charger (up to 30A per channel, dual channel) being fed by a 1000W 36v power supply adjusted down to 34v to let the charger actually output this kind of current. I use an ISDT P10 in the field with a HP sever power supply feeding it which is rated 10A per channel but due to input current limitations at 12v it will only do 4.5A or so into 5s per channel. This works out ok for field charging as I can usually keep up with charging between rounds charging at 2C. The downside of the P10 is it doesn't discharge / storage charge so I need to bring a discharger when traveling with FPV gear. It looks like this charger's internal power supply is 1000W 24v. I suspect it will not do 15A/channel charging 6-8s on the internal PS. I would be interested to know what it 'can' do running hard. as I do run the P30 'full rip' 30A/channel when charging large fixed wing packs on a para-board. Is this charger practical for discharging packs? I doubt it, but I also assume it will storage charge. I do think this would make a really nice field charger that will probably meet the home needs for almost everyone.
can you make video on max load 4 chanels ? becouse i bought 4ac before monts and it was big trash, weak lines, caught on fire with external power and 4 chanels with 4cels on max load and thats not cool
problem with basically all the FPV chargers is they dont do the amps of an I charger. for surface batteries 15 amps is not enough to hard charge. I got a D6 duo and sadly it also does 15amps max. also 800mw balance charge current. :(
Check how batteries are balanced after they are full with decent multimeter or with icharger. If always one cell is overcharged you will destroy your batteries.
Ever since my gear got stolen 2 yrs ago I've slowly been buying up used gear and beating ppl up on prices I'm basically left to get a charger and batteries now
4:28 do you think it could fly a pixhawk quad using qgc over a digital radio… maybe stream a camera over with a edge compute… nah… maybe its only good for playing sonic and mega man!!!

thanks man your reviews and videos are so well done I catch myself watching them even though I don't want the item I'm watching!

They need better documentation.
@@stingersswarm ichargers have the same mode. It's the only reason I knew what it was.
Best review of this charger I have seen yet. Thank you.
Since I saw the first review it reminds me of a Tesla Cybertruck. 😂
Totally.

I do still like my 406d. But I haven’t touched it since getting this one.
Very well explained review mate! Maybe this is the replacement of my icharger (voltz) charger that I have for years now
I’m enjoying it.
i dig it.
Facts
Me too.
Literally just had this delivered myself

Is there a button to turn it off or is it simply done with the button on the power side? Thank you
Just got mine the other day an freaking love it!!!

@@livegood9876 yes you can. I just have too many different types of batteries myself.

i recently discouvered this piece and best investment i did , thanks for the tips i learned more on how to use it , nvr read the manual lol
Hey man. Sorry if this is old news, but I got a new Q6AC today and it included a screen protector in the box. They must be listening 🙂.

You can push 25amps in synchronous mode 👍
Nice charger. Very similar to my T240, but much more refined. Price of these chargers is always hard for me to bite the bullet x_X

Stingerswarm..... you have to watch the Russian guys video on this charger.. he explains everything
Specs are cool but toolkit reliability?
I’ve heard they are doing better. So far so good.
Charger is good. Like a Tesla truck. Can it charge 8s?
No it is 6s max
it looks like a cybertruck lol
Not enough amps for me.
cool, Thumbs up
If you fly a drone with a ROG ally i will eat a hat... or a cheeseburger... awesome video man that thing is slickk
Dude....totally....intentionally? A cyber truck lol
Lol. Probably.
I want so much for this to be a great charger... But ToolkitRC has lost my trust. This is going to need glowing long term review.
1st ❤
So quick
2nd. I use a Venom pro power Dual for a while.
For ages i used the Hitec X4AC+.
Ever since my gear got stolen 2 yrs ago I've slowly been buying up used gear and beating ppl up on prices I'm basically left to get a charger and batteries now
@@stingersswarm is it true you only fly 12s? Your beard is so full like a bear. You must only fly 12s
