I know this is an older video BUT it was a life saver! Thank you yet again captain drone. I picked up this exact charger and thought I had found all of the information I needed to charge my little micro's battery. The only thing I was missing was to hold the enter button down to initiate the charge function. And Woohoo! Your video has saved the day again! Thank you. My Sailfly X thanks you too. 😁
Glad it helped
I'm not even a battery guy, and @CaptainDrone literally just hooks me with all his knowledge. The guy just knows his stuff, love his explanations and attention to detail. Like you literally answer all the questions one may have all in a video. You are the GREATEST!!THANKS AGAIN!
Thank you greatly!
Beat video compared to same videos but this one just has literally all the questions and. The best video. Thanks man for taking your time to explain with details 👍🙏
Glad it helped!
I've had my Gens charger for months & couldn't figure out how to charge a battery....until Captain Drones' vid...thank you sir!
No problem 👍
Just bought one and you made me informative. I couldn't find the storage function, Thanks!!! Captain! That was worth the sub :D
I just used this charger successfully for the first time (branded as Admiral in my case). Thanks for a great video.
Glad I found this video 1 year ago perfect breakdown 👌 especially for a beginner like me ty bro
You are one of the best..not because you do your videos for the cause of helping others or because your attitude to the questions you answer/answered...or because you work two jobs..it's because you save me from... and that means you save me...if I was to do half the things, just half, before looking/watching your videos, MY WIFE/life wouldn't be happy..so, thank you, and doing it for free, , thank you....and my wife thanks you, she didn't say it out loud, but I saw the smile as I wrote this..tc, be healthy, and go "Kraken's"... :)
Glad you enjoy the vids.
Such an easy explanation of the functions. Great video. Thank you.
Totally not my thing subbing to guys with 50-100,000 subs more just crawling and sharing with my TH-cam friends….on a much diff level.
But you are a master of explaining things!!!
Super impressed like this video explained this so well, as well as linked battery charging video.
Thanks! I try to keep things easy to follow in all vids.
Cool video Captain Drone
Well Done Captain Drone!! Thank you for sharing!!
Thank you too
Thanks. I just got into RC and bought this charger.
Very cool charger, thank you for sharing.
WOW! Great charger setup! I know I would need a case with cubbies for each adapter cable or I would lose half of them in a week!
Maybe that's the catch? Or maybe I'm just that careless?
Awesome video, Captain D!
Great video, very informative. Thanks.
Good review and tutorial Steve.
Thanks 👍
Your the man brother if you don't have a video on it I won't watch it lol well maybe a lil bardwell and camps lol but you the man brother keep on keeping on
Thanks Cap. Really useful video.
Glad it was helpful!
I just got back into racing SCT's. I have been looking for a GOOD charger. I have used Gens Ace batteries years ago and found them to be very reliable and worth the money. SO, I will check out this charger. Thanx...
Nice video ..thanks..looks like small improvements from the old Turnigy accucel 6...more modern look on the shell..inclusion of more adapted cables and a few more battery types..HV....only the simple menus and display are identical...
I really like that battery charger
Thanks good info🇪🇪🥰🥰
Hi can you do a video of best chargers to use for dji drones. I know they have multi charge docks but those only charge 1 battery at a time. Multi charger needed
I'm still rockin' my $15 iSDT PD60 running off my chromebook charger
thats so funny i just had a problem with my supply for an rc toolkit sure wished i would have known!
This charger is super powerful and awesome Steve!
5 Amps... super powerful, eh. So, how would you described a 30A charger?
@@justincase6744
I don't know much about chargers...
But I think that it is better than the other regular ones...
@@FahadKhan_3007 It's overpriced and it's a pain in the ass - AC only! Much better choice is for example the ISDT Q6. 8 Amps, DC input and only $28. So this one is a basement charger only, good luck charging at the field.
@@justincase6744 We have things called JACKERY 1,000 Amp Hour Portable Charger. I just run a 2,200 Watt Converter with 4 100 Watt Solor Panels in my OverLand Rig. Not hard at all this is 2021✌️
@@justincase6744 People who fly FPV will take 5-10 Batteries with them. Is all according to how long THEY want to fly.
do i have to set the time or something to get to work?
Great video.. What's your you think about a 1s lipo battery charger?
There are many 1s lipo chargers available... I have reviewed a few in the past.
I have thIs charger I love it.
can you set the [how to] storage voltage on this charger?
Thanks for the video. I am new to your channel because I am considering a DJI Mini 2 for my first drone. I have RC Boats and cars/trucks. I would like to know what charger you use to "fast" charge your Mini 2 batteries. I did a search but didn't find it. A link would would be great if possible.
For the MINI 2, I just use the stock charger.
Got my charger and this video made it super easy to setup and start! Thanks!
Question, I noticed that it has a max capacity mah cut off feature that you can set up. By default its off, but since I have a 4000mAh lipo, is it safe to set it at 4000mAh? I'm assuming that when you plug it in and set it up it can read how much mAh is in there when you go to charge it.
To be honest, I never noticed the max capacity setting. I'm so used to these type of battery chargers that I must have skipped over that.
I don't know this particular charger but on mine i suppose it is an additional safety feature after what amount of charging mAh the charging will stop, even if the voltage did not reach the final value.
Bravo
at 6:38 In the display, what is the number beside the time elapsed?
Thx for the video. Shipping the unit to Canada doubles the price which is unfortunate (I'm in Ottawa as well). Can this unit charge 1S and 2S batteries as well? Is there a unit you'd recommend that's more easily accessible in Canada?
I'd personally recommend an imax b6 copy from china. Bought mine from banggood, and it worked great!
It is a 2S to 6S charger. 1S batteries only have one cell, so most chargers don't bother with them (no balancing of cells), although if you had the correct connector you could certainly charge a 1s battery with this.
Well , I got the unit and it is very nice. I am going to have to contact Gens as there is no provision to turn off balancing and thus it will not charge batteries with onboard BMS. I was hoping it would. Thanks for all you do!
Batteries with onboard BMS? I only charge RC Hobby batteries (LIPO AND LI-ION) and none with onboard balancing. Usually such batteries have their own dedicated charger.
@@CAPTAINDRONE798 , Yeah. These are repurposed from medical carts. They are date programmed pulls from uninterruptible power supplies. 12 volt 384wh. Which is perfect for camping use, recharging drones, etc. I wanted the gens to do a specific voltage charge (which it will do) for the type of cells. Either I can turn off the balancing or I can hook up individual lines to the 4 banks of 16 batteries to fake it. No worries, I will make it work. Thanks for all you do!
Nice. Sorry about what I said in the previous video.
Hi Captain Drone. Thank you for sharing this awesome video. Came across your channel while searching for a budget rc smart charger. I am a beginner with rc car. Just bought one and it came with only one pack of battery. So, I am looking at making some 2s 18650 battery packs with some of my old laptop batteries. Question for you... should I or can I use my rc car charger that came with the car to charge up the newly made 18650 2s pack (it uses the balance port to charge the battery) or should I get this Imars III charger (thinking of buying it base on your recommendation) to charge with it? Thank you in advance. Cheer! :)
For 18650 batteries, I would just buy one of the hundreds of chargers off of Amazon. Those chargers will charger 18650 as well as double A and triple A batteries, and their inexpensive.
@@CAPTAINDRONE798 Thank you for your quick reply. I am planning to make several 2S (2 cells) battery packs with my spare 18650 batteries (with a balance connector & JST connector). Because its a 2 batteries pack. I wouldn't be able to use regular 18650 charger from Amazon. I would like to know if I should use the charger that came with my rc car which it only use a balance connector or should I invest in a IMAR III charger like you mentioned from another video . Thank you again. :)
@@friedrice5292 oh, I see. You’d need an everyday rc charger then. You’d have to get a connector to match what you put on your batteries.
@@CAPTAINDRONE798 Understood sir. Will see try your recommendation on Imars III charger. Looks good and it is in my budget. Thank you again for your reply. :)
Hi! If I have the 2S battery, tatty R-line with xt30. In the episode 7 is not saying about 2S battery. In this charger I will put only the balance connector for 2s in the charger or also the xt30? Thanks!
You just need to buy an XT30 to XT60 cable. Have a look on AMAZON.
@@CAPTAINDRONE798 , thank you!
on bettery it say 60c discharge do i have to set discharge on charger to get to charge ??
You sound like someone who knows very little about batteries and battery chargers. Please watch this video where I explain everything: th-cam.com/video/5etSyHokb6Y/w-d-xo.html
Hey ik this video is old i have an ace gen 3s 11.1v 3300mah battery and im using this charger. So when i know the battery is fully charged all the cells with say 4.20 for every battery when its fully charged or would it be different?
4.20 is correct for a normal Lipo battery
I keep a four button charger like this in my truck as a backup. Works great in a pinch but what's up with no xt30 adaptor?
In the world of chargers you have either an XT60 input or BANANNA plug inputs. For XT30, you'd need one of the many XT30 to XT60 adaptor cables off of AMAZON.
Do you happen to know the balancing current? I don't seem to be able to find it anywhere.
When charging, balancing should be automatic
What budget friendly charger do you recommend for smaller lipos and li-ion with sm-2p and sm-4p connectors?
Are you talking 1s batteries? If so, you'd be better off with a 1s multi battery charger.
@@CAPTAINDRONE798 2s I believe
I just got the imars3chargerpro as recommend by the hobby shop. They sold me two lithium ion batteries and I see that this charger doesn't have a setting for that. They said set for Lipo. Is this okay??
The end voltage for a lipo is 3.4 volts per cell and for LI-ON it is slightly more at 3.7, so your LI-ON battery may not be 100% charged but closer to 98%.
Hate to bother you Cap but since you have the docs I have a question. I have some 4S16P packs that are internally covered by a BMS. Will this properly charge that? I wanted to use it for some of my packs for drones and for that as well. Trying to save on buying yet again more chargers. Thanks as always!
I do not know what a 4S16P is???
@@CAPTAINDRONE798 12 volt 38.6ah LIFEPO4 pack made with 26550 A123 cells. 4 series packs of 16 in parallel.. After seeing the whole video I think that charger should work but I don’t have all the specs in the manual.
@@JohnStruemph Ok, I am definitely not familiar with that type of battery. The charger specs are shown in the unboxing, written on the box.
@@CAPTAINDRONE798 Got it. It should work. Thanks as always!
i small the burn of the charger do you have any that problam???
You should never smell burning
i have 4000mAh lipo if i set to 2.0 a then i charge 6s do it still charge?? but it take long right?? if i set 4.0 a do it burn my house down or anything???
You are missing words in your question. I think you are trying to say 2 amps and 4 amps.... Correct? You can charge a 4000 mAh battery at 4 amps.
6s 4000mAh lipo like i say if i set to 4.0 at the same battery do it overheat are burn it down?
Nope, it is fine. Just never leave your batteries unattended if you don't have a smoke detector in the room where you charge batteries.
First captain 😁
Can you explain us about the balance charging
Ensures all battery cells are same voltage
Have you read the user manual for this thing? It’s the most complicated set of instructions I’ve ever seen. Not just plug it in and charge. There’s a huge set of steps
I find it odd that this charger is sold on Amazon as a set with a 4s battery with a XT30 connector but without the XT30 to XT60 adapter. I had to figure out on my own that I had to buy the adapter separately.
Really? That is just silly on their part.
does it balance charge in charge mode ?
As it charges, it balance charges the cells. Once all cells are the same, 4.20 volts, the charge is complete.
What happens when the charger is done charging? Does it automatically stop charging the battery, or do I have to stop it manually once it is done?
It stops automatically.
Im confused , im far froma novice , I would consider myself to be atleast an intermediate,, after all I have been flying for close to 7 years, and .y question to u is, when u showed the charger , and u chose the setting of Charge, rather than Balance, and im sort of perplexed ? As I dont understand why or if there is a benefit to choosing Charge rather than Balance?
Ahhh... you must be from the old school of battery chargers. When you select CHARGE it also always balances the cells to max voltage. When you select BALANCE, it balances the cells at whatever voltage the battery is currently at. When you select STORAGE, it reduces the voltage to a storage voltage and balances the cells. When you select DISCHARGE it reduces the voltage to a much lower voltage so that you can recycle the battery, it also balances the cells.
Is there a xt30 adapter?
Just like all the battery cable adaptors shown in the video, you go on AMAZON and find one you want... do a search for XT30 to XT60.
i see alot of people used 3200maH and they set 2.0 just wonder why they say it will burn down if it charage to fast
actually if there is any tips of ready made proper manufactured car charger style to xtc 60 could be interesting.....
Most dc capable chargers (basically all lipo chargers) can take a 12v input, so the only thing you'd need is an adapter! You could diy this (soldering) or probably buy it from china!
What’s the lowest charge rate it goes down to? I have a 2S 380mah and am looking to upgrade from my small usb and Dynamite charger as the dynamite only goes down to 1.0A.
Most chargers go down to .2 amps so that you can charge small batteries. I don't have this charger anymore so I can't check.
@@CAPTAINDRONE798 Thank you! I actually ordered it after finding it goes down to 0.1 amps.
I can't find any option for lithium ion battery
Well my charger was short lived folks think I got about 3 charges total out of mine wouldn't recommend this one for anyone mine keeps saying balance port error I ordered new balance port waited three days and didn't change the error .. Was a neat charger while it lasted .
What do you mean by balance it Is it balance charging??
Yes, balance charging
I am a beginner and as such I wonder why this charger with no limits configured, stops charging my 5000mah battery at 3000 mah?
You may wish to ask the company that question.
Why no XT 30 adapter?
I don't believe there are any popular battery chargers with XT30. In the hobby world XT60 is it and for everything else you just use a connector (XT60 to XT30, etc). Shop on AMAZON... there are tons of connectors for anything you desire.
Is cell balance same as charging? I was told to always balance charge
It depends on the charger as they all use descriptive titles. If a charger has only one option to charge then it often charges until all cells are the same voltage. Normally BALANCING is when you want all cells to be the same voltage with or without charging.
@@CAPTAINDRONE798 i was refering to the gens ace charger in the video it says balance and charg option. I was under the impression that balance charging was a more slow but better way of charging the cells equally vs just quick charging
@@joshmarauder I guess I was not clear enough in explaining that one is NOT to look at the descriptive title of the item selected because it is not the same across all chargers (a company can write what they wish to describe a process). But, yes a balance charge (if that is what a company uses for their charger title of a selected option) would mean the battery is charged, and then the cells are balanced.
What about xt30? Is there a way to charge those with this?
Yes there is this adapter for Xt30 to Xt60 lipo:
www.banggood.com/10cm-18AWG-XT60-Female-Plug-to-XT30-Male-Plug-Cable-Adapter-for-Battery-Charging-p-1254208.html?cur_warehouse=CN&rmmds=search
Yes, just get an adaptor cable off AMAZON... You want XT30 to XT60. (just get the correct FEMALE to MALE combination). You'll figure it out.
Isn't that the same firmware as the old SkyRC iMAX B6/B6AC Charger uses?
Propably most chargers are using the same!
Yes, very common interface that is on many budget chargers.
@@CAPTAINDRONE798 That's a good thing, makes it easier for people to use!
i have a question why are you not doing an air 2s review?
The AIR 2S is an enhanced AIR 2, so it is not a major DJI new drone release. For that reason, I have to find time to make a short vid about it, but there is no urgency since again it is nothing really new.
@@CAPTAINDRONE798 wise words cap!🙌
Does it work with rc cars?
Yes
yeah it do but when i charg it say bettery errr
Sounds like your balance cable is damaged
Hi, I recently bought that charger and the man in the store told me that I can charge my 11.1V 1100mAh battery for airsoft gun on cellbal mode, is that correct?
What is celibal mode?
@@CAPTAINDRONE798 Cell Balance (CellBAL)
@@CAPTAINDRONE798 I also read in the manual that it would charge the cells up to 4.05V and stop.
I guess you'd have to try it to find out. The battery voltage and mAh are all normal, but the question is... does your battery have an XT60 connector and a Balance Cable? If so, then you would use CHARGE. I'm guessing you only have a Balance connector... if that is the case then I have no idea if it works.
this dont work for HRB ROHS bettery it say bettery errr why how you fix that problam
Does the battery have a balance plug?
Hello, can i charge li-ion batteries with this? Thanks!
Yes
With which setting? Same question here.
Is the balance function the same as the charge function? Or must I charge the batterie after running the balance?
Balance & charge are often one and the same. However, on some chargers balance is a separate means to try & get all cell voltages exactly the same vice the total voltage of the battery.
@@CAPTAINDRONE798 Thanks for the reply.
I'm kinda new to batteries, most of my flying in the past were gliders - floaters to jet style - so didn't need the batteries for a motor. I suspected it was the same (sort of) because voltage check shows it's charged.
One thing I, somehow, found while it was balancing was a screen showing high and low voltage maximums, and they were both in the 2,338 v range!?, but I cannot find any way to get to those settings to set the H & L values.
The low voltage on my 2200 mah 11.1 v 3s battery shows 12.4 volts after I took it off the charger. Don't know what would have happened if it was trying to put 2,238 volts in!
@@longbowshooter5291I’m not sure what the screen was you were looking at. Then again, I do have 10 Professional battery chargers I use daily, but I do not have this one, so I can’t check as to what the screen is.
@@CAPTAINDRONE798 Kinda figured out what screen I was looking at - it was the battery meter screen, then going down to another screen, that showed that High / Low voltage per cell. When I did the check it showed 3.75 for High. and 3.07 for Low, and 11.1 volts for the max voltage.
Please do NOT ask me where that 2,238 volt came from! I STILL don't know why that was there.
Now I have to try to figure out why this charger charged my 11.1 V battery to 12.4 V.
I THOUGHT it would automatically shut off once it reached 11.1 V, but NOOOooooo...., it was STILL charging when I noticed it was 12.4 showing on the dial. And the manual is a joke.
Thanks for responding.
@@longbowshooter5291I see your confusion now. A lipo battery has anywhere from one to eight cells in the RC hobby, which means you can buy one cell up to eight cell rc hobby battery chargers. Your charger is an entry level six cell charger, hence the price. Lipo batteries all have battery cells that are charged up to 4.2 volts. So if you have a 3 cell battery it becomes 4.2 volts x 3 which equals 12.6 volts fully charged which is what your charger did, so all is correct.
Can this charge li-ion battery?
Yes. Li-ion batteries are treated the same as Li-po batteries.
Thanks
Just needs an xt60 to xt30 connector and I could charge every battery I've got
AMAZON is the place for that. I buy all my connectors there.
@@CAPTAINDRONE798 You are the man, I don’t what we would do without you. Expressly those who are new in FPV.
okay i got 1 that work other 1 dont work i return other 1 ohready
No xt30 extension though😭
You have to do like everyone in the hobby... go on AMAZON and get yourself the XT30 to XT60 connector.
Second
I think b6 is better cause it’s 27 is and with adapter and wires
i need to know because i dont want to burn my house down
Charger for dummies! 🤣🤣🙌🙌🙌👍👍

First
As in 99.9% of all the reviews here we get some preview of the included manual but absolutely nothing regarding the precision of charging, balancing etc.
Exactly. This is not a review.
I’m looking, but I can’t find your video about just the DJI mini 2 by itself.
The MINI 2 is an enhanced MINI 1, so I just made a video showing the differences called WHY I LOVE THE MINIS.
@@CAPTAINDRONE798 Saw that one. I’m still adjusting to having 20 minutes of time left after I get the shot I was thinking of taking. I literally have time to come up with other stuff to shoot while it’s just hovering waiting for me to tell it what to do.
7th
I'm sorry but I don't think that this is a great deal to be honest... I mean, it's basically the same as an imax b6 charger, except for this one having a 100w rating instead of 80w for the Imax, but that isn't an issue, since this one has a 5 amp limit, so you won't even reach above 80 watts if you are charging 4s battery's... And a knock off b6 can be had for $20 on banggood... Yes, they might be a knock off, but they really work great, I've used them for years and their accuracy have been great... I think those are the real steal of a deal... Otherwise it's a great review though!
Again, this charger comes with a built in power supply, it comes with the common cables and it is from a legit battery company. The B6 charger, with power supply is not going to be the same price and it does not include the common cables and many are a knock-off (China) and not 100% North American certified. However, it is the goto budget charger and even I have two of them, purchased years ago when I first got into the hobby.
@@CAPTAINDRONE798 I bought the b6, with power supply and cables for €21 from Banggood. It was indeed a copy, but I knew that beforehand, and it was a well reviewed and tested to be accurate copy. The only part where this one wins is the American parts and certification aspect to be honest.
But again, great review, I just felt like that charger needed to be mentioned here, for it's price to performance ratio!
@@vandenelsenkoen Wow! That is a super low price from the B6 (good deal). Normally that is the cost of the version without power supply.
Actually, we need a charger that "real' balance the cells, and not just charge all the cells at 4.20v, and then try to discharge the higher voltage cells.
Just in case you are new to the world of battery chargers... When you select charge on a charger like this, it balances the cells as it charges the battery.
@@CAPTAINDRONE798 i know what you mean, but in one of the latest videos of JB he showed that the "balance function" tries to discharge a cell when reaches the 4.20v so to keep up with the others, thats why the balance charging take so long sometimes (i cant explain it better, my english sucks!)
@@BASSstarlet JB is a great guy, and is my goto guy for the technical side of things, but be very careful interpreting his videos. He makes even the smallest thing HUGE and loves to report on "Problems". He is a good source of info, but many of the problem areas he points out are so very insignificant.
