(yes, I was sent this to review. Yes, that's an affiliate link above. Yes, I'm that guy trying to make a buck. Yes, I do believe in this product too. Yes, I can be all these things and still a nice guy.)
Finding your first LiPo charger can be a daunting task. Yes...I know that these chargers charge more than LiPo batteries, but let's be honest...most people are using them to charge LiPo batteries. Now that I met my quota for using the word LiPo in the first two sentences, let's talk about the new Spektrum S155 G2 Smart Charger. It has Smart in the name, but it can also charge "not so smart" batteries from other brands as well. It's actually a very capable charger that can charge 1s-4s LiPo/LiFe/Li-Ion/LiHV batteries and 1-12S NiMH/NiCd packs at up to 5.0 Amps using it's 55 Watts of charging prowess. Rarrrgh!
For those of you that do use Spektrum Smart batteries, you get the ease of auto-start charging with your Smart battery, but also full control over your battery settings through the detailed menu system. But don't be fooled by it's capabilities, it looks good too. Check out that color display that guides you through it's intuitive menu system normally reserved for chargers 2x its price.
At $60, this charger doesn't break the bank, but it will help you have the power you need to break your RC cars. So charge up those batteries and send it to the moon my friends.

I had bene using this s155 charger with Spektrum Smart Lipos just fine and all of a sudden it started giving me the error "No balance lead detected" on some batteries. Slowly it started giving me this error on ALL batteries, even the Spektrum G2 series where there is no balance lead to plug in. Any ideas what could cause this? Thank you in advance!

This charger may have a problem or not. When I used it to upgrade the battery software on my G2 lipo Spectrum battery, the update failed and turned the software back in the battery itself such that the charger is now looking for the balance lead (the G2 battery doesn't have one), nor will the charger show the individual cell voltages (nor the Spektrum battery checker), nor will it initiate smart charging automatically anymore. Plus now I have no way of externally balancing the cells since nothing sees the individual voltages. The failed update seemingly has pooched the battery and frankly I don't know if this new battery is now safe to use over the long term....bummer

Newbie here, Interested in the S155 G2 1x55W AC Smart Charger. My question is about charging a non smart battery using the S155. Seeing the S155 doesn't have a storage charge option to get the battery to 3.8 volts for a non smart battery what would I do to get the cells to 3.8 volts if the voltage is lower than 3.8? Would I have to visually monitor the voltage and pull the plug when it gets to 3.8V? Is there a way to get the battery to 3.8v using the XBC100 Smart Battery Cell Checker and the S155? Appreciate your help.

Will this charger shut off when the battery is full? Even with non-smatt batteries?
@CCxRC
@CCxRC 2 года назад
Yes. It won’t turn off the display. But it will stop when the cells reach 4.20

What about these new batteries with no balance plug? How do i store it when theres no storage mode?
@CCxRC
@CCxRC Год назад
You use the smart settings on the battery to automatically drain to storage when unused. You can set how many hours after a charge before it got into storage. I usually do 72 hours or more. That way I have 3 days to use them before it starts to discharge. So after I use them, I charge them and let them drain to storage.

4s only??? with the technology now days, they should have at least added another 2. . to make it 6s with 5amp of charge. .that would be perfect.. I can't have too many chargers. . I think I will get the 6s. .
