I just bought one of these and your video was exactly what I needed to get started. The manual is extremely well written but a wee bit overwhelming to a old rookie. Just successfully did my first charge. Thanks for sharing.
This video is amazing I can't thank you enough, I bought my charger today and hadn't a clue how to use it or even where to start and thanks to you I know everything I need to know, thank you very very much
Best video on using b6 chargers I've seen. Most other videos move so fast through setting their own stuff up with no review of setup, features, use of the different plugs, etc that it's only helpful if you're doing exactly what they are with the same batteries & connections. You're like a thorough instruction manual along with the why's of the info. I'm sure I'll be watching this a few times. 👍👍thank you thank you!
I just got this in the mail. Awesome little charger. And thank you for getting me through it :) Your video made it very easy and simple to operate.
I just bought an IMAX B6 and with your video I am now ready to use it!! Thanks ;)
Had this charger for about 4 years .its excellent and so was your review.i learned something today....👍🏻
Ten years old video and still helping RC enthusiasts like me 👍👍
Thank you bro
Thanks, I figured it out with the manual but loved to hear it confirmed by this vid.
Don't want to burn down my house!
Fantastic, just ordered my first heli that requires 2s, this charger was recommended and as you state the instructions are pretty good, but there's nothing like actually seeing someone talk through the process. I feel more confident now and can't wait for my heli to arrive.
Thanks alot man, I bought one like it for a good price and I was going to sell it because I simply couldn't figure out how to use it and I didn't want to damage my lipos, now I can keep it and get maximum use out of it, great vid, thanks again...
Great video. I'm a LiPo newbie, and I have one of these chargers. Now thanks to you I know how to use it.
Many thanks for the video: loads easier to understand than the manual!
Det er den bedste forklaring på hvordan den virker, ud af alle dem jeg har set.. Super forklaring..
Very much appreciated as I look to see my options. Thank You!
I just bought one - based on your amazing review!!
Thanks for the feedback. I think it serves most needs. Is it as precise as a high end charger. No. But it does what it does well.
Sweet. I think when I first got into the hobby, the charging situation was most confusing. I had a hard time figuring out how to get started. Hopefully this gives you a starting point. If you have any questions, let me know.
Hi bro......i use an omega 8000 mAh 7,6v 2s 120c lipo battery on my rc car......my charger broke down and i want to purchase this one....could you please tell me which mAh setting would be better to charge my battery???thanks!!!😉👍
Awesome review! I am new to this and just purchased mine. You made it very easy to use. I already learned a ton!
EXCELLENT VIDEO!!!! I'm going to need to watch it again since you've covered a LOT of info and (I guess...tho a REAL man wouldn't do it) read the manual. Many thanks for a job well done.
Hey man this was a lifesaver of a video, i just got one of these and this really help me hit the ground running so Thank 👍
Hey this was the best review I've seen on this charger
Thanks for doing this video. It wasn't obvious to me from the manual for my similar charger that I needed to collect the main leads for balance charging. This helped a lot.
just got my B6 and this was super helpful, great video!
What a thorough and clear video! 🙏🏽
Excellent tutorial. I am now seriously considering buying the Fake B6 also, since it seem to be just as good as the real one.
The best review and test drive ever.. Thanks
Thanks for making the video , I really dislike reading 20 pages of basically bullshirt to find one paragraph of information I'm looking for , 2 thumbs up
Thanks for the help, it helped me get started into this hobby
Thanks bro!
I just resurrected three of my Lipo's.
You are explaining really clear.
thank you very much for your help and I enjoyed watching your video
Thanks for the video. I didn't realize I needed 6 xt60 to 3.5 banana adapters to charge 6 at once but I ordered them so it will all be good
Thanks, just what I needed, a great explanation and how-to
Very good review. I'm getting back into the hobby after many years of being out of it. I have lost a couple of LiPo's due to not storing them correctly. This looks like a must item for sure..
Thanks this video helped so me so much. It was long but totally worth it
Not sure if you still monitor this, but I just bought the B6AC Version 2 and could only find HORRIBLE video on that and even the V1 model. This video is awesome and covers everything I need to know and didn't know about my V2. Awesome! Thanks.
Brilliant video!, just what I needed in plain english!!
thanks great video
i had just bought a e6680 lipo charger and i did not know how to use it
so thanks and its pretty much same as the imax B6 so thanks
Excellent video. Took me from level 0 to level 6 (operational, but still need to refer to the book).
Great demo....very well done and easy to understand. Thank You
Great video for anyone looking for hands-on on how to use this charger
Nice detailed video on this dis/charger!
Thanks I'm still learning about charging any more video u recommend that I watch?
Great tool! We're using this in hybrid batteries, too! Cheers and great work here!
one by one module? or several?
Thanks, this covered everything I needed to know.
This was by far the most informative video on this charger I have found, Thank you! Do you always have to connect the balance charge (White one) along with the yellow one?
Great vid by the way. Very clear for new users.
Pretty good demonstration video, thank you for posting.
This was a really helpful video. Thanks a lot!
Excellent... You made up my mind. Just what I am looking for.
Excellent video for newbies. Big thanks.
Brilliantly clear, thank you so much. The manual with tiny flow charts was a nightmare.
I think this is not the real thing. Easy way to check if it's real or fake is to getting the weight of the unit. To be precise use grams instead of onz. Fake: 400-470 grams, Real: 525-580 grams. This is due to cheap components and the saving of copper and smaller capacitors, etc. Real: on the back has two large stickers, not only a QC sticker. For the RC enthusiast this may mean how your costly batteries are charged (helicopter & airplanes specially). Respectfully.
barretojaz JAB it looks fake to me original has skyrc printed on the front where the ce/fc is printed
Thank you for a great presentation.
i have the same charger and love it
been using it flawless for years
only difference between yours and mine is yours has only one 12v input through the power plug
mine has a wire with gator clips permanently attached for attaching to a car battery etc for power and the same plug as yours
mine also came with a 12v 5a power supply(computer type)
Bugger, I got conned as well. Very informative. Thank you
Really helpful vid great detail and easy to follow. Thank you.
Great video. Just got this charger. Thanks.
Thanks. Great video, good teacher!
Very comprehensive video. Most helpful
Great review of the IMAX.!!
Great video. Thanks for posting such an informative video.
Just got a fake one for only 10 dollars with coupon codes. I'm really satisfied with it. I don't mind the small inaccuracy as I watch over the charger when I'm charging making sure nothing explodes!
Just got this charger for my drones. Nice tutorial. Thank you! Would balance take longer than regular charge?
I have one of those been useing it for 5 years works great never had a problem with it!. ( knock on wood! )
I'm liking the computer power supply tip it will obviously be a nice 12 and 5v source, thanks
Thank you for the instructions : )
Thank you so much. I learned a ton!
Excellent information for a novice. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks, exactly what i was looking for
Nicely presented video, many thanks.
Thank you for the great information in this video! I also enjoy your reviews of drones, including the Eachine E511S, which I recently purchased. Which brings me to a newbie question: Can the Imax B6 be used to balance charge proprietary batteries such as the E511S? I can't seem to find an answer anywhere, maybe I'm asking the wrong question?
Thanks for the video I have the imax and I did not know about the cell check till now cause I didn't read my manual .... Good video Thanks again
8:33 Note to self...
That beep is REALLY annoying.
Great video, a lot of information!
It might be a fake product but the point of this video was to demonstrate the process of charging - and he does a good job.
Great video, very informative! I just ordered this charger as I'm getting into micro rc cars. Only working with small 2/3s batteries. How long does it usually take to charge on avg? Is that quick charge similar to when you crank up the voltage?
Thank you, as your video has been so helpful
Finally, a tutorial for this charger. Wish I had seen your video before I did exactly what you advised not to around 20:00. Got a little lazy on soldering the xt60s and shorted the battery. It did give me a miniature version of the new year's fireworks. lol. But thankfully, the battery was fine; charger detected it and I'm charging to full cap. as I write this.
Thanks for the great review; happy flying!
Hey! I'm charging a 3-cell 2200 LiPo at 2.0 A on balance. How will I know when it is done charging?
Very useful video - thanks.
Kool man great video . I hv the same one. Just got it fired up n charging thanks to u ....
Thanks mate, good explanation even in 2020
Thanks for this, I have a 10 year old Graupner Ultramat 16 charger but it doesnt have storage mode, so ill be ordering one of these to automate the discharging of my car/boat lipos but I can still use both chargers with balence leads to charge more than one battery at a time. it would be interesting to explore maximum charge voltages, as some people recommend only charging to 80% for extra life of the batteries, wether this matters or not in model batteries I dont know.
Excellent video and explanation, thanks...
1) My led screen turns off when charging...Should this occur???
2) What should the led screen indicate to show a Full Charge???
I have a Tali500 drone
nice thorough review ! 👍😎
thank you for the valuable information
very clear explanation, thx for your good work.
it doesn't come with xt60?? thats the most important one!! :( can you just plug in the balance connector with out using the red/black cable? how long does it usually take to fully charger a battery?
EVERYTHING cpo Thanks for the video! About the balance plug extension that you have, I was trying to purchase one on eBay although they all have different size (some has 4 colored wire & more) so I was wondering how to find the right one?
Thank you for a very useful video
Great review!!! Thanks!
Got to turn on the charger 1st, then plug the batteries.
Thanks for the reviview.
I was an idiot and used the battery to give voltage to the charger lmao
awesome video, thanks for your time. I have a question, I have a 2000mAh 7.4V 25C battery, so using your calculations, should i be charging them at 2amp...and as already asked, how do you know when they are charged....
thanks
You got +1 sub, great vid :)
I was unable to fly. I balanced the batteries. Drained them with the storage feature. Few years later tried to charge them and no luck at the usual low rate. Refused to start charging. Set the charger to a lower rate of charge and it worked perfectly. They came up with really good balance too. Batteries are back to normal.
Any advantages/disadvantages to "charging" vs "balancing"? Or are they simply two different routes of pumping in mah?
Thank you for you nice review !! it helps me a lot..but a have a question..does the charger automatically interrupt the charging ??
Bit late for this, thank u in the future
Great video... just ordered one.
You are amazing great tuturial 👌👍✌
Best review ever thanks alot.
