"I'm not convinced that's a real thing". I love you, JB.
I primarily watch Joshua's content for his voice acting 😂
Jokes aside, there is always a JB video for anything I need, this is amazing !
I saw your video of the Whoopstor V2, then out of stock everywhere, after a while i saw Whoopstor V3, got one and cant be more happy about, truly excellent!
I have 2 of these and they have been great chargers for my whoop batteries. The storage charge option alone is worth buying it for. Being able to charge from a usb c pd battery bank really makes field charging more convenient as well.
Best thing for Whoops and Nano Quads.😁
V3 is the best to carry in your pocket and it remembers your settings. 👌🏽
V2 had a switch that has bent it in backpack.
Love your content and energy Man, you are a legend for doing all this amazing work for us.
I love your excitement showings these products to us!! You are SO thorough and genuine!
JB, wouldn't a Radiomaster Pocket really fit that setup? And maybe a review for us 😇
He already made a pocket review
@@aqua_sakura5021 at the Moment i wrote that comment there was no review. By now there is one and fair to say since then I have the pocket and Whoopstor 3 in my inventory 😆
I just bought it. Thank you wise FPV man!
Happy Monday everyone! Love my Whoopstor, and with Whoop season almost upon us, its time for a new charger. I kno what I'm getting!
Happy Monday for you as well! 🖖😊
Fantastic review, Joshua! Thanks!!! 😃
Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
I have had mine for a month now and i am very happy with it.
There is one MISSING FUNCTION for it to be my perfect charger : it doesn't show the lipo internal resistance which would help assess the health of the battery.
I charge on USB C and I am limited to 0.6 A amps max charge (more than enough but just spreading the info). Maybe it's just my wall adapter that's rated 9v and 1.67 Amps and the charger can do more on usb C.
I bought two, love my whoopstorV3’s!
Ha, first time I bought something blindly before Bardwell did a review on it lol, my WhoopStor 3 has charged/storage charged about 70 packs and it is performing excellent
Two things, in discharge, it sets to a max of .3 I believe. I love it, only one minor complaint, the ph connectors are too loose, but they still function.
I would love to see a case released for the whoopstor 2. Mine works perfectly, but stuff does tend to get inside between the plates when in the bag or out in the field.
Are there not 3d printed cases for teh whoopstore v2? I'd be happy to print a case for anyone here if you find a model you would like for it.
Thanks for your great review.
I’ve gotta say… I like the look of the V2 better. Something about it’s basic look and B&W screen is cool
I’m about to buy the mob 7 and this charger combo.
i was as stoked as you when i found out about this charger too! lol
The V3 is very good but you didnt mention that it does hold the current and voltage value in memory.
If you use it the next time, you dont have to set it every time.
Thats really setting it apart from the V2. And only 2 buttons ❤
I have v2 and to be honest there are no reasons to swap to v3 if someone has v2 already. Switches are pretty straight forward for me, changing current too.
@@PinkeySuavo apart from what I said the V3 seems more transportable and less likely to damage due to how its built.
@@JackalFPV True
Just got the V3. Great little 1s charger. Plugs right into my 24v powersupply via XT60. The screen is tiny, but it's CLEAR. Go buy one! Use someone's affiliate link.
Wouldn'g it be cool if there was a 4 port version of this for either 4s or 6s batteries that uses only the balance tap? Set the current and select either "charge" or "storage charge" and simply connect a battery via balance tap as needed.
I just received this item. You’re saying that for instance I had a 4.3 volt battery and wanted to bring it to storage I would put the amps at 0.3 and just set the volts at a lower one maybe in this case 3.5? Is that how it’s done? Please let me know. Great review
I have a question, i bought this Whoopstore V3 couple of days ago. I wonder is there a way i can make an adapter to use 2 channel at once to charge 2s tiny whoop batteries ?
Hi J.B I believe there is some knockoffs out there being advertised as Vifly on eBay, I just ordered one then realised it’s a knockoff so I’ve ordered one from my local FPV store, will be comparing the og & knockoff
Love that thing!
Does it have Molex Connectors for batteries with Molex Terminals?
what is still missing is the amount of mah that goes into each battery, and then it would be perfect, maybe in V4
Can I charge and discharge jst 1.25 100ma batteries with an adapter?
I charge my bt2 and PH2 batts at same time.... all 12... on the v2...
Looks like you're still enjoying your Firefly Nano. 😂
I can confirm that it parallel charges. I bought ph2 to bt 2 leads and can charge or balance 12 tattu 300mah.
Same! With myself and my two boys flying I need a lot of batteries ready. I love that I can charge 12 at the same time.
V3 is very good. But i have big problem. I see discharge voltage protect is 3.5v/cell on input port. I use Lion battery for supply power. Lion battery can discharge to 2.6vol. But the charger shutoff when voltage is 3.5vol/cell. Please help me setting on this case. Thank you so much
Up
Max Discharge Power: 1.1W / Port
When you put it through an calculator:
But I guess the discharge current lowers when the Voltage decreases..
@4.35 Volt it`s ~252 mA
@ 4 Volt it´s ~275 mA
@ 3,8 Volt it´s 290 mA
V3 has a buzzer when batteries are full charged v2 don't,only a "ok" and red light goes out when finished charge.
....anyone else want more info on his tiny whoop "go bag"? I've been looking for a small hard case to put all my whoops in. That GoPro bag (what is it?) looks pretty good!
I just wish there was a 2s version!
You showed what to set the charger for 1 cell when charging for storage but what do you set the charger for when charging the battery for actual usage? Yes I am a newbie and I bought this charger for the batteries for my emax tiny Hawke 3 hdzero rtf kit that I just got a week ago. Hope I can learn fpv, 🤞🏻.
Typically you'd charge whoop batteries to 4.35v.
@@JoshuaBardwell thank you and how about the A? Also at .3A?
Same yes.
@@JoshuaBardwell thank you very much for your help, I do appreciate it.
I have v2 and to be honest there are no reasons to swap to v3 if someone has v2 already. Switches are pretty straight forward for me, changing current too.
I always charge my 1s all the same MAH, together. if I have 380s and 450s, I charge them separately. Can I charge them or put them in storage at the same time, or continue to do them in like batches?
You can mix and match.
Hi Joshua … just came across this video unit looks impressive. Just wondering 💭 and it’s a newbie question will this do 2s batteries as well? As I got the pavo pico batch 2 and looking for a good charger please. Again sorry for the newbie question we all have to start somewhere. Have a good weekend
It will not do 2S batteries. Only 1S.
@@JoshuaBardwell sorry would you recommend any? I got this off BETAFPV but it was colour black. BT2.0 Battery Charger and Voltage Tester V2. Not sure if it’s working. By the diagram it should show b-1 = and b-2 = and then all 4.24 . Sorry just after looking at your Lipo video where you have the helmet on . Thanks for replying
I have an idea for a product, for battery management. Who would you recommend I talk to try and bring this idea of the market, or at the very least see if it's viable?
Unless you are putting up money to develop and manufacture the product, its unlikely most manufacturers would take the risk. Unless it's an exceptionally good and novel idea.
JB which battery bank is that? looking at the specs and the gopro case i have it doesnt seem like it would fit.
It's made by Lumenier
Will A30 packs plug into this charger? I know it says BT2.0, but if the little guide tabs are small enough, or the connector a bit flexible, A30s can fit.
A bit late. But A30 will fit.
For storage, it automatically does 0.3A. No need to set it.
Will it actually discharge a fully charged battery down to storage voltage, or will it only charge a discharged battery up to storage voltage?
It will discharge.
I like it, but it can't do .3amps on one plug .4 amps on another plug .5 amps on another lipo one another and lihv on another. while my really old UP-S6 charger does do that and its just as portable. I do like storage charge though it keeps my tortured whoop batteries from puffing so badly :)
I just bought the tiny hawk 3, what batteries should I buy? Or what 1s batteries should i buy in general?
I like the gaoneng options. They have any plug you need up to 700+ mah
Big drawback of the v3 is ph2.0 ports are recessed on this one. They barely make contact. I actually prefer my v2 for this reason.
Will it charge battery's with the new a30 connector?
Yes. A30 will plug into BT2.0.
Radiomaster pocket review
Those whoop frames are so twisted in that pouch. They will fly like crap. Again. Not slamming, open for debate. Love ya josh!
I want no more, I'm going to buy it!!!!!
Where is the coupon code?
i got a 6s lipo for my goggles, is it bad that its always fully charged/i dont storagecharge them. i mean i will not fly with it but will it be ok to use it like that for my goggles? or will the battery get destroyed really quick?
If after every flying session you fully charge it again, then it's not a good idea. Depending on how long it's fully charged until you use it again. A day before isn't bad, but if it's always nearly lying fully charged for a week, not good for the Lipo.
My tip: set you charger to only charge it up to about 4.05V.
That will make it a little safer and prolong the battery life.
Alternative get a LiIon 4S 18650 battery pack. More safe
Goggles don't draw much current. So the damage to the battery won't have a big effect. I wouldn't worry.
I want one...
Hello, can I charge betafpv 550mAh 1s lipos with that charger?
Yes
won one from a raffle and cant wait to use it
If my V2 ever dies I may buy this.......
Only thing to make both better is if they include an ac wall adapter, those of us who only have 1s would appreciate it
Buy a wall to USB-PD Adapter
Love my v2, it's the only thing that allows us to balance our 1s batteries. I used to connect an overcharged battery with an undercharged battery to balance them.
The DC plug is the same as the goggle plug, I use my fatshark battery to storage mode (what I called balance in previous comments) my batteries. It allows me to fly my batteries down more, I used to just try to unplug from the drone as close to 3.85 as possible, then I would connect slightly overcharged ones in parallel with slightly umdercharged ones to put them to the right voltage.
Whoop whoop
radiomaster pocket pls
Hey I am new to building fpv drones. Is a higher or lower pitch prop more eficient? If you have a video talking about prop types, I'd love to watch it!
I would point you here: czcams.com/video/epJ6L9MaXOQ/video.html&ab_channel=ChrisRosser
Hello! Is it possible to charge 2s batteries with this device?
No.
@@JoshuaBardwell Thanks!
I just boght the damn v2 like a week ago
Were those A30 batteries you plugged into those BT2.0 ports?
Yes.
You’re starting to sound like Drone Camps RC with the “new best thing” titles lol
When I think something is the best, I won't shy away from saying it, just because it triggers some people's click-bait alarm. I stand by my picks. Since March, 2022, I have declared a "best" product in a category 10 times. In only one of those categories did I override a previous recommendation within that time period. For example, I only declared one "best 3D printer" in that time; one "best FPV goggle" in that time; etc.
So, to put it another way, I declare a new "best" item in a category less than once every 18 months. That's pretty reasonable. Objectively speaking, I don't use "best" in titles often, and I don't use it carelessly.

No A30 input :(
A30 is cross compatible with BT2.0 plugs on chargers. You can just plug in A30 it's no problem.
boop boop

Couldn't find the whoop race
Fixed! Here's the video: czcams.com/video/0s1RXx9iW50/video.html
I bought v2 on JBs recommendation, and indeed it is perfect. As for V2 - new case - fine and new amperage - fine. But as for new screen, if this increases cost, I don't support it. I see 0 benefit. The old black and white was more than good enough.
Anyone ever get diarrhea from eating too much TexMex?

Saying its the best is drawing a long bow string I think.not true sir.
Which one is better, in your opinion?
