JB spending too much time alone I think😂 great intro!😂😂
He seems so 😂😂😂
😆
Already ordered! Respect for telling people of other options man! It's not every day you see see someone promote their competitors items. Shows integrity
I respect the man a lot. He does his best to be unbiased, he just wants to educate the quad community as best he can. All for free. Big props.
sucks u cant ordert hese to canaada im so bummed out
@@codyfournellcsrf5164 wdym? I live in canada and ordered no problem
@@StunnyFPV wouldn't let me so I had to order two separate boards off banggood
@@codyfournellcsrf5164 damn that's really weird... i didn't have an issue. maybe you had a vpn on? just spitballing
Timing was perfect, was on the market for a new parallel charge board.
JB’s last few videos have made me feel different things for FPV.
This board is amazing! The color-changing poly fuses are super genius
Been using your strix board for a while. Highest quality board I've owned and I LOVE the fuses. Keep doing this please! Why does no other manufacturer do this??
Yours and the Lumenier are the best out there. Back when I bought my most recent parallel board, I went Lumenier, but your new one has the features of the Lumenier that I wanted and also does both XT30 and XT60. Great design.
sucks they dont ship to canada tho :(
Really appreciate the authenticity and effort put into ALL your work. I have balance boards galore (other JBs even) and this one is well thought out and definitely my new favorite. Thanks again!
I bought one of those 10$ parallel charging boards off ebay and almost burned my house down several times. It’s probably time for an upgrade 😂
The part where you said "several times" is troublesome. Haha
You know what they say: 'almost' doesn't count
@@zeroblade6599 shoulda coulda woulda, but i didn’t do that
Yeah. They work, but they'll bite back if you do anything wrong. Mine has two 4S ports that are just dead, because the heat from me plugging my battery wrong (twice) desoldered a pin. Now I've got a two-port charger, and that's sufficient for me, I think.
@huhhman Bet you felt big saying that 😉
Thanks Bardwell. I just ordered one. Many thanks for all the help you give us.
Got one today, with suprizes in the package! Thanks!
Your ability to make some information so entertaining is amazing hahaha loved the intro
just got my jb strix its a beast i love it
Usually I send a pm via Facebook then I found all the info I was looking for watching all your videos on these. Thanks for leaving them all up.
Great review. Well thought out parallel board. Really appreciate the attention to safety. Happy flying 🤓
I was literally just looking at parallel charging boards. Great timing!!
Perfect timing, I just ordered 2. Thank you Sir!
I love that the balance leads are off to the side instead of on top.
It looks like it'll be easier for those batteries with shorter leads and it gets hard to cramp batteries together if you have them too close.
Just ordered.
Has to be ONE OF THE BEST intros yet!!! I wonder how much grief he will get at Rampage for this.. 🤣🤣😂😘😘
I just bought this board! Amazing! Really recommend!
I had a cheapo parallel board Catch Fire a month ago. After that I immediately ordered two of your JB boards. Theres no comparison to the quality. It's nice to be able to charge and relax at the same time.
Thanks for all you do JB... Just ordered one now..
I love it when you make yourself laugh in your intro :)
Still on the 4s version afterc3 years of use'n'abuse it's solid stuff! Go for it! 🤘👌❤️
Your (now old) 6S XT60 board is doing such a great job! I use it all the time, no problems with it =)
I like 5s...
had used a xt30 2-6s board and your 6s xt60 board with the balance charger 2-6 adaptors..
Will be buying this ASAP....
I only have XT60 connectors on everything so I use the Toolkit RC M6D with the ISDT parallel board. The ISDT board is a heavy, well made piece of electronics. Solid case. Good design. Love it.
Thanks Joshua I learnt a whole lot today.
I have been following you since you started man you have come a long way> WAY TO GO
Thank you for all the great and honest videos!!!
i was about to buy the old board but im glad i waited this is exactly what im looking for
Played it well, man! Great intro.
Got this a couple of months ago. Works great, feels safe. Now I just need a more powerful charger for my 6s.
Love the video BTW. 😁
I plugged in a 4s and 6s on your jb board on video accidentally. The fuse saved it!
Another similar para board in terms of features is the new HGLRC Thor one. Only has 4 outputs, but is more compact, and also has a discharge module so that you can get batteries down to the same voltage easier
How do you think HGLRC Thor one compares to JB's board?
Congrats Josh! Love my JB Strix balance boards.....just ordered two.....though I'll still have to use an XT60-XT90 adapter😎
Ok, haven't even watched the whole video yet....that was the best opening by far!
after i plug in wrong , and the ballancer of the battery burn ,i buy this and it work nice 👍👍👍👍
Great balance board Joshua Bardwell, thanks for hooking me up with my first white claw 🍻 at Rotor Riot Rampage 🤘
LOL... hilarious. Look forward to picking this up as an upgrade to the previous JB charge boards.
JB you crack me up. Great intro
That is your best intro ever!!! Loved it, so funny!!!
Sick puppy intro, have your fun.
I've been in fpv for 3 years and I'm still afraid of parallel charging. This one has me temped. Thanks for sharing. I like your products they hold up great. I've got like a 4-5 builds with JB Fc. Btw. Your the best.
VERY happy with the build quality, loving it!
One thing of minor note is that mine came with black balance plugs, and some black foam edging to protect the two boards from getting anything in between them - looks even sexier that this preview/review unit
..Already modded it with some TI screws LOL
Oh JB, I think I wanna electrify myself with your new board!!
I saw that, it looks crazy awesome
I learned a lot more than I wanted to today in the first 58 seconds!!! Lolololol!! Awesome intro JB!!
That into was awesome
You crack me up great intro Joshua
Nice parallel charger im definitely getting one
Yes @joshuaBArdwell we will learn something today.... you LOVE all kinds of batteries!
A little too much maybe?
got mine , love it !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I like the combination of xt30 and xt60. Useful and helps cut down on the number of boards. Unfortunately, i just bought some strix xt30 boards late last year
Your a trip!!! Lol Love Watching you bro. Never seen nobody make love to their charge board!!! Lol
Have you ever seen a box cutter fly? Joshua! love you man. I've "learned something today" for months.
Sooo much fun, is fpv,
just strap me in and set me free.
I aspire to be a freestyle Pilot (like you) and I wanna show someone the first quad I "built", call it the Crab. After experiencing FPV I'll never be the same person THANKS! Keep learning us J.B.
Haha love it Joshua. I have your signature xt30 board, it is the best. cant wait to get my hands on this
That's awesome, if I had my first quad I would pick 1 up asap.. Good Job Josh. PS it looks dope 👊💯
That's a much better design than the old one I used that scared me away from parallel charging. I probably would have stuck with it if I had that one. The board I used had the array of balance connectors, and over several years I had two incidents where I plugged a balance plug into the next sized connector. Because of the way the connectors on the board were aligned, it meant that it was offset by 1 pin and short circuited the cells. The first time melted one of the traces I needed for 4s charging off the board. The second mistake... Yeah I threw it away like I should have the first time.
That parallel charging board is amazing though I need to get myself one of those!
Great vid. Thanks for sharing. 🙃😎
For micros, I prefer series charge adapters, especially in the field. You can charge two 3s packs in series and don't have the safety issues of parallel charging.
On Ali there are super cheap ones that work great and charge only using the balance plugs (which is totally fine for
You crack me up JB!
Just ordered!
I'm a great fan of your videos! You're the best
I'm dying LOL 0:43 Love you JB!
Watched it but did not realize how huge this board is. Quality is top notch. Having XT30 and xt60 EPIC. Will have to order 3 more though $$$ for the Hota D6s
Lols what an intro 😁 I got this in the rmrc mail and had a look at it. 👍
Still got the 4S version, I'm glad to see that the ports are a bit more staggered on this one. That was one of my only complaints with the old one, I've broken so many fingernails trying to unplug the dang XT60s in that middle row heh. The separate voltage checker is also a great idea, makes way more sense. You can just ignore it and use your own, until you realize you left it in the car and then you always have a backup.
Thanks. I just bought one...
Ordered mine from readymadeRC last week... Should actually arrive today 😁
Just got one thanks.
Always good stuff
Playing out your fantasies with the charging boards that's hilarious👍😉
Looks good! Might be time to replace my old board!
YOUR INTRO IS GOLD
Hahaha your funny and made me laugh so hard I spit my coffee. I learned something this morning. Thanks, Sincerely, Pops Fitch
Got mine today.
I bought the JB board it is badass
Ohhh I learned something today for sure. Bardwell is a bit of a freak!
Heya, JB. I ordered two of these. I think I'll be ordering two more. I rather like them. :) Thanks for all your work. I wouldn't be flying right now if it weren't for your videos. I'd be at least another couple of weeks. :) I did get one of the Lumenier ones, but I have to admit, I haven't used it once yet with yours sitting next to it, but it's smaller. It'll be the one I carry with me into the field. Cheers, mate!
Gosh, JB, I'm pretty sure that was at least PG-13, and maybe even R in some parts of the world. Well played! Just got 2 of the new board in from RMRC yesterday. Really awesome stuff! I'm very impressed by the build quality as well as the features. Could you do a video on how to use the pass-through capability and some considerations to think about when deciding whether to use it, e.g. safety? efficiency? Calculations needed and any other considerations in terms of setup and monitoring. Thanks so much for working on this product; it gives a lot of us some confidence in the purchase knowing that you were involved in it.
Could you do a review of the T-Motor ft5
OMG thanks GOD for those balance port positions, take my money
Finally... I heard the term micro quad. Nice 👍 glad to see not everything is a toothpick lol
Just bought this board.
The first 50 seconds of the video made me have to get one now, that was funny.😂
that’s really nice. I don’t need one cuz i already have about 10 of those damn things, but that looks nicer than all of mine.
Yep, loosing it. So funny, good to smile once in a while in this world we are living it😳 great video, I did “ learn something today”
I own 2 of those boards, both had issues with on board battery "checker", after unscrewing lower plate turned out factory haven't cleaned flux residue from the board which I assume just corroded contact overtime, after re soldering everything related to such circuit and proper cleaning with IPA the board runs like new.
I think you missed the real competition, the URUAV Blacklight B6pro. I think it was the first one I saw to have it all, poly fuses and automotive fuses with indicators plus XT30 and XT60.
They cost pretty much the same but their are some slight differences in their feature sets:
URUAV:
The automotive fuses it comes with are transparent, super easy to check, if one has tripped.
It has a beeper for when something has tripped.
It also has a detachable XT60 connector to the charger.
Yours:
It has an integrated battery checker.
It has designated daisy chaining.
As for the daisy chaining you could do this on the uruav probably as well if you simply connect the second one to one of the outlets. However, I would rather go for a charger with multiple outlets and attach individual parallel boards to each of them, but that's probably personal preference. Also
JB looking like he about to eat the board in the thumbnail 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
That intro was worth the price of admission.
The daisy chaining feature looks like the deciding feature in this case. For my typical usage, I need at least 10 lipos to charge at a time. Being able to chain 2 of these together would make this a very compelling case. Could you perhaps elaborate how the chaining works? Some example cases of how you would use this (or expect this to be used). Seems like an underappreciated feature from where I'm sitting 😉😄 Loving the safety details btw. Great job!
Love it love love love it
Daaah, literally just bought a paraguard with adapters for my xt30s
had my $15 parallel board for 5 years never had an issue :) but ive always been careful
Oh man you nailed that intro, im in tears laughing here ....
What up Joshua from California man I love your enthusiasm your C.A.F. bro aka cool as
Dude, that intro is amazing! LOL
