Fantastic review Wayne and I've ordered one for my son who has this RC car that uses 3S and its perfect for his trip to the track as he is now able to carry one of my 3500mAh 6s to drive it. Impressive little unit.
I've been using chargers that I bought second-hand over a decade ago, and I've been waiting for this one to arrive. While researching this product, I found out about the Fast PD charger and bought a 65W PPS GaN charger and a 100W C cable. The ease of charging with USB-C seems to be a big attraction.
Yes, good call on this. Since filming this, my wife had a bunch of power adapters from her office she asked me to throw out, and amongst them was a 65W HP PD charger which I've now taken for this :)
@@CurryKitten Yep, those things are lethal, compliant ones have shutters but even better, there are clamshell adapters that would not cost the Chinese much more to include that are 100% safe.
simple question 4 months later: is it really any good ? I am asking due to a video titled AVOID! 80% FAILURE RATE - Do not buy B6neo chargers. he owned 5 of these and 4 suffered from defects mostly the fan no longer spinning and I guess overheating. I am about to buy this one but now I am hesitant it the new isdt 605pd would not be better.
This was the video from RC Video Reviews. i did comment at the time, that my one was fine, but that was only after a few weeks of use. But yes, 4 months on and I do use it regularly - and there's no issues. Of course, this doesn't mean there's no issues - either I got lucky, or he got a bunch from a particularly bad batch
Well, technically a 1S lipo is always in balance as it's 1 cell can't be compared with another cell to make it out of balance :) If you are talking about storage charging, as MC says - there are board/cables for this as chargers very rarely do them. You can put this into 1S and select storage, but I haven't got any 1S lipos around to test. What normally happens it it complains there's no balance connector and fails, but I'll grab a 1S from somewhere and test at some point.
