Is this ok? Is it easy to use?, and anyone knows if it has any display menus in English?

TIA.

hi!
It is very simple to use, the manual is a bit complicated but its really
plug and play. I have english menus on mine, if you order from Germany you
must specify english I guess. I use it for RX NiCads 1700 and 2400, for 6
cell 1700 motorbatteries and for 12 cell 3000 NiMH motorbatteries for my
Logo10. If you buy a used one make sure it is upgraded with the new
sodtware or you will have to send it to Germany to be upgraded. The new
version even charges the new Li xx battery packs. It is rumored to be one of
the best chargers on the marked, a bit pricy but very good.

The software is available in french, english and german. The operating
instruction is available in english and german only.

You should leave the upgrade to Schulze if the software version is lower
then V6.31. If your charger has V6.31 or newer you can change the software
ROM chip yourself.

Yes, Schulze are making nice chargers and most of them are possible to
upgrade so you do not have to buy a new charger when new battery technology
is made available. My charger is a old model sold under the Graupner brand
but i can still have it upgraded to the same level as the current ISL-330d
from Schulze. And this will cost me a lot less then buying a new charger.

I use this all the time for my logo 10 and is an excellent charger. You can
download the instruction manual at
http://www.schulze-elektronik-gmbh.com/index_uk.htm

It has options to cycle batteries by charging then discharging one or three
times then displays how much charge went in and was taken out. The only
limitation is the discharge rate has a maximum of 1A this is ok for most
things but can be a bit slow for large packs
