Discussion 10S 10A 300W charger/discharger ( iCharger 1010B+) --206B, 208B release!

[junsi]

I’d like to recommend you a newly produced Charger iCharger 206B，206B is a Synchronous Balance charger/discharger with a wide input voltage range for NIMH/NICD, Lilo/LiPo/LiFe (built-in Lithium battery balancing function) and Lead Acid (Pb) battery packs.

Synchronous buck-boost DC/DC converter technology---an advanced charging technology, we are the first manufacturer to use the technology to design balance charger--- assure up to 93% power transfer efficiency. Not only save the power but also make the charger size very smart, easy to use and convenient to take.

The following lists are their main specifications:

iCharger User Calibration steps is attached, pls check it when it is useful for you.

Connection Sequence

According to our engineer, the main charging port and the balance port has reversed polarity protection respectively.

If the balancing connector has correct polarity, and then connect the main charging port, there is no problem; but if balancing connector has reversed polarity, and then connect the main charging port, it will burn.

Recommended connecting way:

1. Connect iCharger's input power supply, and turn on it.
2. Connect Li batteries' balance port
3. Connect the main charging port's positive pole to cells' positive pole, and then connect negative pole to cells' negative pole (this will avoid striking fire while connecting Li cells).
4. Start charging and discharging...
5. After finishing charging and discharging, pls disconnect the cell and charger, and then turn off the charger's power supply.

Gratitude to Julez and Kgfly for their hard working on upgrading instruction.

How Much ?

Looks like it limits LIPO up to 1C although it certainly appears to have the power to charge many packs at a much higher rate.

[theShark]

if its 200W max does it really charge 10S at 10amp?

Charger 1010B can charger maximum 10 series LIPO at a time,1C limit is just for LIPO battery, according to LIPO battery’s manufacturer standard, usually LIPO’s current are limited within 1C. Questions are welcome!

The charge current is different with the charge voltage, for example, if you want to charge 10s LIPO batteries, LIPO’s maximum charge voltage is 4.2V/cell, in this condition, the charge current should be figured in this way, (amp=200W/(10*4.2V)) and its charge current is about 4.2amp, is it clear? Questions welcome!

I actually like the specs on the iCharger106B shown in that document. Where and when can those be purchased?

Thanks for your attention!

...removed incorrect statement..

The pricing is pretty sharp if it is for single units (rather than a carton full) and the chargers can live up to their specifications. Of course there is shipping to consider. The 1010B is a head-to-head competitor on features and performance to the TP1010C+210V but integrated, smaller, lighter and about $100 cheaper.

My compliments on the graphic design, more eye-catching than the plain blue of the original Chargery units.

Here we don’t want to talk any Commercial Confidential Information with you ,but we can ensure you that we have the right to design, modify, and produce the original 1010B and 106B.
Thanks for your comments.

What accessories come with the charger for $180 ? Input leads, output leads, balance port adapters, temperature probe, PC interface and software etc ?
