@MBrulla 3 года назад

Got mine in the PreOrder - love having one with my name engraved in it. It's an excellent board for more precise charging and, more importantly, discharging. Much safer and sticks last much longer properly stored.

@stevo43068 3 года назад

I've made three of those 6x1S cables. Lots of testing with the DMM to assure myself that I had it correct. I like this board, one can charge less than six at a time. (edit) And it's cheaper to buy this compared to buying all the bits to make the cable.

@AlbertKimTV 3 года назад

Good point I forgot to mention... this is definitely way cheaper than the old way by buying all the wires and adapter pieces to make one yourself. With this now in existence, you'll only want to make a DIY one if you just like to waste time and money.

@fabiennesteuer3818 3 года назад

@gvanausdle 3 года назад

@dieFPVler 3 года назад

Good idea from my "DIY-Expert-Level" (ironi) I´d think of a click-based mounting of the power- and balancer cables on the PCB. This way the tiny cable strands are allways wiggling around a bit an will sheer of after a while.

@AlbertKimTV 3 года назад

Can be used with just about most modern chargers.

@amen_ra6926 3 года назад

NIce.....I just have one of those boards that set the whether the battery in an HV or not and a light goes out when charging is done. But there is no way to storage charge. So I just don't bother. I fly them down to about 3.5 and that's it. I may look into this gadget even though I don't fly whoops too much anymore. The lipos don't seem to last too long either. I should dump most of them and re-up.

@662SSIPPI 2 года назад

Will this work with my htrc t400 duo charger I use to charge my rc trucks with? Another great video

@AlbertKimTV 2 года назад

I'm not sure what connector that one has. You'd need an adapter for XT60 if it has something else.

@makesomemore_ 3 года назад

The extra holes on the board are for bt2 connector :)

@matelslug1 Год назад

also u can install gnb27 connectors in that extra slot fits like a glove...

@Lozoot2 3 года назад

Hah, I was just thinking this morning about trying to find or make something like this! I would like to see a 6-pos switch instead of the jumpers though, just to make it a little more idiot-proof. I currently use the betaFPV 6-battery charger, but it can't do discharging for storage. Unfortunately like half my bt2 lipos are puffed and dead now because I never got around to using them and they sat for a month at full charge 😅

$@fractalengineering$

@fractalengineering 3 года назад

yep so my first revision used dip switches and it didn't hold up the current; 6pos switches are hard to find in 2A and when you do they are bulky and expensive; this much current is AC territory so the bright red extended jumper was just the next best solution to get them out at an affordable price

@Lozoot2 3 года назад

@@fractalengineering Ahh, that makes sense! On the opposite side of things being idiot-proof, would you consider selling just the unpopulated board? I've got enough spare connectors and wires to build one lol

@NuttGreez 3 года назад

When we encountered this problem with diy vapes back in the day, we went switching mosfets of the appropriate load. I know cost and time prohibitive, but who knows maybe down the line you could refine a deluxe version 😉.

@NuttGreez 3 года назад

By the way, love the product! Soo, I can fit gnb27 in the bt2.0 hole if I line the banana plugs right, but not fully through hole. Would that be enough contact for light storage charging?

$@fractalengineering$

@fractalengineering 3 года назад

@@NuttGreez lol yes mosfets and even logic gates to detect the number of cells automatically has been discussed, but in the end it would remain useless without the charger, so the next step that would make sense would be a full-featured charger imo I have not had a gnb27 connector in hands, it might be bigger than BT2.0; in any case the purpose of these free holes are to solder a lead to it; I wouldn't recommend simply sticking live wires to it

@cristianosaturni 3 года назад

Nice, finally. Out of curiosity, if you set the jumper to 5s but you put 6 batteries in the first 5 connectors, instead of 6, do you have a fire?

@AlbertKimTV 3 года назад

6 instead of 6? You question doesn't make any sense... 🤷‍♂️

@cristianosaturni 3 года назад

@@AlbertKimTV I just wondered what happens if, by mistake, one inserts 6 batteries with the jumper still in the position for 5 batteries.

@pksteffen 3 года назад

Be sure to read the manual linked by that QR code. You’re charging serially not parallel.

@MichaelDFPV 3 года назад

Correct me if I am incorrect. The board looks like you could solder on bt2.0 connectors to the board next to the ph2.0 connectors.

@AlbertKimTV 3 года назад

Yes, they actually sell a version with just the BT2.0 connectors but you can add your own of course.

@quadwings66 3 года назад

Oh crap I made a diy harness just yesterday with 4 connectors and a 4s balance plug. Is there something I could do to charge less than 4? Like putting a connector on an empty slot and linking it’s + and - ? Dunno if that made sense.

@AlbertKimTV 3 года назад

No, you just need to get this board. I think getting all the parts to duplicate this functionality you want will actually cost you MORE than the board at $13.

@paulsoldmann1284 2 года назад

How would this handle multiple emax 2s batteries? Each PH2 would be 2 cells. would the jumper go to the 4 s pin?

@AlbertKimTV 2 года назад

This is not meant for that kind of battery. You'll probably start a fire, don't try it.

@stelic9515 2 года назад

Hii I have made something similar for 2s batteries. I am using for 1 year and a half and work well. If you have different capacity batteries wil also work but much slower because the charger try to balance the cells.

@MakingDirtFly 2 года назад

so can you use different mah amounts for them like have one 150mah and one 300mah and charge them both?

No, that won't work. The capacity should be the same.

The only problem with this is that all the cells have to be the same capacity, whereas with parallel you can do any capacities you want, as long as the voltages match up

@AlbertKimTV 3 года назад

That's true but this is also not real parallel charging. It's creating a serial pack from individual packs so you can take advantage of modern smart charger balancing features. Still better than anything else out there now for 1S packs.

does it short one battery if you put the Jumper in horizontally?

@AlbertKimTV 3 года назад

Not sure... I don't plan on testing that just in case it does...

@sendorm 3 года назад

It probably will (depending on the side you have shorted). Got to look at the traces but I guess one side is connected to the positive sides of the batteries, while the other side is all shorted and connected to the main red wire. this way you get to choose which series connected battery is connected to the main red wire.

@fractalengineering 3 года назад

@@sendorm Well the manual advises against it...however for the bravest of you, if you still insist on trying then yes it will utterly destroy...nothing lol, each pin on the top row lead to the VCC side of each cell, so there is a voltage potential of zero between any of them ;) The bottom row is a little more complicated, depending on how many lipos are plugged it may do nothing or dead short 1S; up to you, but I don't recommend it
