My Easy Lipo Charger Setup (SkyRC B6neo + Tidy Wiring)

- A few videos ago, we unboxed this compact SkyRC B6neo lipo charger and put it through its paces. Because my main use case is charging packs with JST-PH leads, I need an adapter to XT-60 and the balance port. I can buy one, but since I already have an extra adapter cable for 4mm banana plugs, I will make one.
I'm not good at soldering, but it's kind of fun to do. I use this Sequre SQ001 iron. I cut off the banana plugs with just about the minimum amount of wires remaining to keep things clean. XT-60 supports a pretty high capacity of 60 amps and normally goes with much thicker wires. Not a lot of solder is needed here to make a good connection in this case. Certainly no need to fill the the whole terminal. As usual, let's apply heat shrinks to insulate the exposed bits. With a few minutes of work, the adapter is made.
It makes sense to me to keep the wiring as tidy as possible when going for a lightweight travel setup. Taking one step further, I looked into smaller power supply options that's easier to carry than the Macbook charger. I picked up this USB-C 20 watts wall charger on Amazon. The key is that it can optionally output at 12 volts. B6neo requires a minimum of 10v from DC input. I tried another USB-C charger capable of 9v. It could power on B6neo but would show an insufficient input power error message during charge.
Now this is a light travel setup! This USB-C charger charges my phone too. Here's the power supply and adapter in action. The charger displays the negotiated USB-C QC/PD power mode. Let's balanced charge this PN battery. The charger is pretty easy to use. In my next trip to the track, my backpack is going to be lighter.

This was helpful, thanks!
Thank you 👍
I bought this charger but i have 19.5v 160watts adapter when i plug it input voltage shows 19.50v and cut off 11v should i increase the cutoff voltage from 11 to 19v??
When using a wall charger i don't think the cutoff setting is important. It's needed when using a 3+s lipo battery as input power to b6neo to protect that supplying lipo.
I might just go for this set up and charge my battery individually. Where can i get the cable like this? I can solder the xt60 just like you did.
This is my usual recommendation but it's out of stock currently for the xt-60 version (www.wolframrc.com/product/charger-adapter-cable-for-jst-ph-3p-atomic/279?cp=true&sa=false&sbp=false&q=true). You can get the parallel option and just charge one pack at a time (www.amazon.com/JST-PH2-0-Parallel-Battery-Charging-Tinyhawk/dp/B0CBQHSZBW). I just bought a xt-60 female connector and soldered an existing charging cable I had that came with 4mm banana plugs.
The link was broken on the second link. Btw, did you make this cable your self. If not where did you purchase it? Because i need one with banana plug. It will perfectly fit my old charger as it is.
The amazon link was basically for the same one on kenonhobby too (www.kenonhobby.com/PN-Racing-XT60-Plug-3xJST-PH-Parallel-Charging-Cable_p_46091.html). For me, I already had the charging cable for my jst-ph battery packs, but I needed to change out the banana connectors to xt-60 as seen in this video. If you want the banana plug ones, use the wolframrc link above and get that.
Does that charger do storage
Yes it does. Configurable amperage and target voltage.
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?
This hasn't happened to me, but I imagine the charger reboots back into the main menu. I wouldn't expect it to resume charging automatically.
@@sammybaka I bought B6ACneo. If the power is lost and appears again, and the battery is connected, the charger goes into displaying the error logo, which in some cases can be removed with the button and select start again.
Can it charge just by balancer port? I have a 3S deans battery pack
I just tested this. It won't charge with just the balance port plugged in.
@@sammybaka thx bro you just saved me a bad buy for me! 🙏
Glad to help!
