Thanks for the video, this really helps to understand how to set accurately for those, like me, who have little experience of using 3rd party charges.
Absolutely brilliant video for beginners like me, thank you VERY much.
Glad we could help you out David :)
Great video,just bought that charger and you answered all my questions
Glad we could help you :).
Same
Just ordered one of these. It will help massively for getting the xmaxx charged and out running. Waiting to 2 5000mah batteries to charge one after another got way too time consuming
I'm so glad that you produced this video, Chris, because I was pulling my hair out trying to figure this thing. The instructions that come with it are rubbish. Thank you very much! Do you know if the manufacturers sell toupees? They should do!
The instructions are complicated for a noob like me I’m bald now from tearing my hair out
I blew up my last one
Thx m8 very usefull 😎🤙
Brilliant just got one wasn’t sure how to do both at once
Hi can you advise what wiring I would need to charge a LIPO battery with JR/Futaba RX plug as I see the SkyRC T100 has female XT60. I'm new to hobby and trying to order the right wiring for charging the transmitter battery.
Hi Chris, I have two 7.4v Li-Ion batteries and when I try to charge them on the Li-Ion setting, the only setting I can set them to is 7.2v, is it safe to charge them on the Li-Po setting where I can find 7.4V? Your input would be great because I have an RC tank sitting in my room collecting dust.
Is there another charger like this that charges 2 but can tell what percentage it’s charged at for the NIMH?
When is full it’s star making sound of bips, that’s means is full or I need to wait more? You said going down... Thanks 🙏
Hi,
In comparison to like the SkyRC's older Imax B6 brother how is this charger better (or worse) ? 🤔😕
Thanks ! 😇🤗
Best Regards,
Much better than the instructions that came with my charger and batteries.
Glad the video could help you. Have fun :)
Ho acquistato questo caricabatterie e sembra valido il vostro video è molto istruttivo e utile,ma..esiste un programma per scaricare la batteria batteria che non si usa?
Can I use this to over charge my battery
How to charge s3 Lipo ? Thanks
Hiya.
What you can do in scenario when port A comes up with “connector error check port” tried same cables and batteries on port B and it works fine but port A refuses to charge or pretending charging for 20 minutes but again triggers same error 🥺
It only charges lipos no more than 4 S?
Great video thanks! I do have the same charger. I have 4s lipo batterys 6000mah. The charger can only to 5000mah or 5A. Does it much longer to charge with 5A on a 6000mah lipo ? Thanks 😁
If 6000mah @ 1c (6A) takes about 60 minutes, then @ 5A it would take 72 minutes.
How can the SKY RC be calibrated? My charger shows 3.6V on the display, but when I measure with a calibrated Fluke multimeter, the meter shows 3.3V. That's a big difference. Please write how it can be calibrated.
did you find out anything about recalibration of charger ?
im guessing you were measuring the voltage on a battery while it was charging, right?
@@darthtrump4428 no, charging has already been completed, the charger signaled that it is over. I measure the voltage and it shows a big difference on the fluke and on the charger.
Does the % relate to completion of charge of the whole battery or one cell?
Charging my 3250mah 2s at 3.2a it said 90% done but flicking through screens it ahowed both cells around 4.1v?
The percentage is for the complete charge
Generally these chargers are very accurate. There are other variables like the age of the battery , frequency of use that can effect percentages and charge rates
I always tell people once the charger beeps complete you are good to go :)
Hope that helped
Chris
Great video! I learnt a lot. Is o.k to charge at LESS than 1c? I have 7200mah lipo and I believe this chargers max output is 4.5amp.
Also, will the storage charge function discharge the battery if it is in a higher state of charge than the storage voltage?
It is fine to charge batteries at less than 1C it may just take a bit longer.
Yep, charging under 1C is fine. It's actually safer, it will just take longer.
Hello my lipo 3500mh 2s has 7,6 V instead that 7,4V.
Should i use anyway 7,4v??
A guy told me to use Lihv and not Lipo
correct use lihv mode for lihv batteries
I've have this charger and every time I plug a lipo in I get the connection break message I'm only using the balance ports as this is the way I've been charging them with my stock lipo battery charger..do I need to connect the xt60 leads aswell as the balance leads
Yes both have to be connected to balance charge a battery
Good question
that's where I've been going wrong then.. thanks dude
Do you have any experience with LiFe? I got a small 6,6v 2s 900Mah battery, without balance leads. The charger isnt happy when it doesnt detect balance leads, so I'm a bit confuddled. If you have any thoughts, I'd appreciate it. Great tutorial.
I would suggest sending an email to sky rc and maybe they can help you out
We don’t charge those formats of batteries.
Hope you can get some answers
@@ChrisHouseHobby Hey man, thanks for the reply! I'll do that. :)
Great vid! Want one, really unsure about the quality though. Can these really do the full 5a on Both channels at the same time. I use 2s 5a lipos.
We use this charger as a shop charger and 5amp on both channels is what we do to it everyday. We sell tons of them and maybe warranty one in a blue moon
Go for it !
@@ChrisHouseHobby Thank you so much! So hard to find reviews and it seems to be such a good price for around 50 Subbed & liked. 👌
@@redogg2749 where can this be bought for $50?
@@ripsaw2322 £50 not sure about $ dude.
Cool but this really all the cels with Same A ?' and whats better, T100 or b6 nano?
I'd like to know this too!
Can it be used to charge a small 2s lipo from fcx24 or scx24?
Yes you can
@@LPATRON19 thanks 👍
@@adamskirc no problem
Hiya Chris I need some help again
The shop has shut down I went to they gone broke 🤦♂️.
I have two types of battery
Vant Battery lipo 2cell
5200 mah
50c
7.4
38.48 wh
Kong power battery 2cell
60c
6000 mah 7.4 v
This one says charge at 6.0 or less
The charger only goes up to 5.0A
What setting for the two different one do I set it as I’m so confused but really trying to figure it out . Don’t wanna blow the batteries up or burn my house down 😂.
Well, if the battery has more milliamperes than your charger can charge with, you simply just charge with as much as possible. It’s okay that you charge with a lower amount of amps, than what the battery says, if that makes sense? I’m not the best at English, but hope that it might help you :D
Thank you for the great review. Does it have an internal fan that makes noise? Or is it quiet? :) Thank you.
Yea they have fans. They are quiet. :)
Thank you. :)
Can i charge my battery if it only has 3 pins (no +- cable)?
You need a special adapter to do that.
Team associated makes one Check out asc27235. BE CAREFUL when charging as the charge cable is small gauge. That’s cable are great and need converted to xt60 for your charger and you will be good to go
Can this charger charger 7000mAh 4S lipo battery ?
Yes it can
Does it have discharge and storage mode?
Yes it does
I do recommend using a separate special discharger for batteries to increase the life span of your charger if that is a feature you use regularly
The storage mode will automatically charge or discharge the battery to be safe
Is this charger better than Imax B6?
comparable format, b6 has been used forever its rock solid, the skyrc charger have excellent QC and we think they are a little better all good though
Hi do i just use 5amp to charge a 6500mah ? Tia
Yeppers
Cool thank you. New to lipos just ordered a xmaxx 😀
@@markwatson9413 I hope you bought great quality batteries for it. Name brand like gens ace
@@ChrisHouseHobby just the YouMe 6500mah 60c
Ok so what is the setting for a 7000mah battery on the A Setting?
If it's a 2s LiPo 7000mAh, you'd want to charge it at 7A, 7,4V (2S)
7a but this charger is 5 amp maximum
skyrc t100 vs skyrc t200 ?
I have 6000mah LiPo batteries. Can I charge them 5A? SkyRc has a max of 5A. Is it better to buy a SkyRc t200 charger and charge 6A?
I have the T200 and am a noob and it pretty much works as per this video.
Exactly what I want to know!
Hey Chris People are saying in other video comments
Do not use it it has no cooling fan so it’s very dangerous??
What are you views on this please ?
We charge about a dozen batteries a day with this charger and it has been great
We have it powered on over 40 hours a week. We sell over 200 a year and none come back for issues
Fans are nice
This one doesn’t have fans
To-ma-to To-may-to
@@ChrisHouseHobby thank you sir I very much appreciate your quick reply . Think they just shit stirrers .
Your video was very very helpful
@@ChrisHouseHobby quick question Chris my batteries have not been charged since I got them over year ago they have not been run or charged from when I bought them form the shop .
what should I do charge up for storage or try check and discharge them . My traaxas Erevo is in need of work and it will not be ready for some time .
What should I do please
@@Bart-Did-it too many variables to answer the question. I usually need to see and feel batteries before we recommend charge settings. It’s a long story.
Go into your local shop with some tim hortons or in America land (Dunkin’ donuts) and ask their opinion
This is the absolute best way to get the proper advice
If your shop are full of elietist know it alls make sure to bring donuts too. That’ll soften em up nicely
Chris
@@ChrisHouseHobby I live in the U.K. and we have crispy cremes here so I try that. I’m off to wheel spin rc cars later this week I’ll ask them . Thanks for your help bro .
Im not to sure if I’ll get to the shop before I eat all 12 donuts 🍩 cannot promise anything 😂.
Thanks dude take care 👊🏿
I very much needed this but I’m still confused about these China batteries
Nothing confusing about them.. 99.9% of all nihm/lipo batteries come from china
@@fbiagent3399 it’s all written in Chinese lol
@@Bart-Did-it None of the batteries in the video had Chinese labels... Not that It matters just learn about lipo safety and you'll be fine
@@fbiagent3399 yeh bro I know all about them now it’s been three months 👍
How much is it in CAD $$
On amazone it’s like 100$ cad www.amazon.ca/dp/B091HS4XQM/ref=cm_sw_r_sms_api_glc_i_BY0Y09X216NKTKHBZDFJ
Disappointed it doesnt know what lipo cell count it is automatically like my b6 $30 charger.
Cool fans ??
mine says balance lead not detected and its plugged in the only way possible
May have a fault in the balance lead or the charger.
Try a different battery if you have one
Also could be a broken pin or a damage balance lead or maybe a bent pin
Do a Slow and carful inspection of the connectors sometimes you can see the problem
Good luck with the troubleshooting:)
