Fancy!

Looks awesome, I love my Hitech X2!

Wow, this is very similar to my SkyRC Q200

Perfect cosmetic overhaul! It really does make it look meaner/more aggressive than all red top/black bottom. And I have been thinking about painting my X2 for the longest time. Now I must do it!

Sarcasm aside, the X2 High Power is a more compact charger that is more feature rich than the original X2 AC Plus. I think those who enjoy their X2 AC Plus will really like this charger

I just picked up the Hitec X2 AC plus Black Edition charger/discharger/power supply today. I really like the ability to set up and monitor the charging on my phone. And getting the messages about charging complete is a very nice feature.

Just getting to know it but I like what I see so far.

I really like the feature set on this one. Not sure why others above feel the need to make ignorant and petty comments. It's clearly different than the original. Will check it out at the LHS.

Looks really good, but seems not to be one of mine due the similar charger price

Disregard... I answered my own question.

My first attempt at a product review...

Hey Alexa, Tell Me About The Hitec X2 AC Plus *Black Edition*... (16 min 31 sec)

What is the max charge amps delivered to a 6s lipo?

Do I have this right? 100 watts divided by 25.2V = 3.96 amps. So this charger can charge one 6s pack at 4amps and 2 at 2 amps each while plugged into the wall?

Correct, but also depending on how you have the power distributed.

I got my charger today. I'm really liking it especially the app and the ability to see battery resistance. I had a Fatshark 1800mah 2s goggle battery that swelled slightly and dies quickly when used. Then when recharged would only take 400-600mah to fully charge I threw it on this charger and found it has a internal resistance of 165-145

The wattage/dollar on this charger makes me wonder why anybody might buy the X4. I had been considering an X4 over the X2 because of the phone control. But with that bell/whistle is on the X2 as well, it makes those 2 50W channels seem like a short-coming.

My LHS says that my X2 Black has arrived. Will a new X4 be release within a few days after I pick it up?
