There's no shortage of chargers in a hobby that revolves around LiPo batteries, and navigating through a sea of companies trying to stand out with the latest and greatest can be challenging to say the least! I currently own multiple chargers, with a large 4-port behemoth being my go-to bench charger. Somehow, this big 1200 watt machine always finds it way into my truck when I go to the field, and it takes up considerable real estate; it's a love/hate relationship!
But while I was visiting the ReadyMadeRC booth at Toledo this year, I learned about the ISDT Q6 Plus, and I knew I had to buy one on the spot. ISDT is not a new company, they've been around a few years. The entire lineup of ISDT chargers are the epitome of form and function: they look great with cases that buck the long lasting trends of big aluminum cooling fins. The Q6 Plus was introduced in December 2016, and has seen a relatively steady increase in adopters that sing it's praise. It's IPS LCD display is bright and clear, and quite easy to read; a refreshing change from the normal LCD screens.
What really impressed me was it's small size and high performance numbers: 300 watts and 14 amps! Being a single-battery charger, the Q6 Plus really benefits from the relatively large cooling fan that makes up the majority of the bottom of the case. As long as it stays cool, it can mindlessly top off those LiPo's at high watt and high amp rates.
Watch the video below for a complete rundown of functions and charging.
ISDT Q6 Plus Smart Charger Available From ReadyMadeRC - RCGroups Review (12 min 22 sec) |
The little Q6 Plus does everything it claims to do! It can easily charge up to 14 amps and output 300 watts. The Q6 Plus can take a wide range of input voltages from 7 up to 32V, and can charge 1S up to 6S Lipos, as well as NiMh, lead acid, and the other Li-XX types. For its size and price point around $50, you just can't beat it; I leave mine in my truck for whenever the need arises to charge a LiPo at the field. Head on over to ReadyMadeRC.com today and order yours! Thanks for reading my review of the ISDT Q6 Plus, and happy charging.

That's exactly what I bought one for. I use a 3S 5000 to charge my 2S 350mAh lipo packs for my DLG's. I can now charge under my canopy with no hassles or worry about running down my car battery during a two day event. Love this little thing!

You have to change the lipo type to HV to get to 4.35v and higher.

Also I just got the 6 amp power supply and it is very nice and compact for easy charging from an AC outlet.

Haven't charged with it yet, but just powering it on to test there was zero noise. There is no fan on the power supply. The top and bottom is metal so I assume it's designed to dissipate heat from that.

Yep. Still pretty dang good for most of the stuff I use. 160W is putting down big amps on higher cell count packs. For instance you could charge a 4S pack at 9A no problem.

Of course I wouldn't mind having this bad boy either... https://www.rcgroups.com/forums/show...ion-for-Drones
