Advice on Keenstone UP100Ac Lipo charger


Danny93

Recommended Posts

hello everyone, after digging the Merv out of the garage I'm now in the market for a new lipo charger after selling my overland rc 65. Im just after some advice on this one iv seen on amazon. https://www.amazon.co.uk/Keenstone®-UP100AC-Balancing-Battery-Multi-Chemistry/dp/B01HBBQE4Q/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1472153259&sr=8-2&keywords=lipo+charger+120w

Any advice would be ideal on this charger, or opinions on a suitable alternative for around the same price. Looking at charging small 2/3s lips batteries for the MERV. This one has the ability to charge 2 different batteries at a time which would allow me to charge a pair of 2 and 3s lipos? many thanks

dan

Hi it's only 50w per channel so will take over an hour for your 3's. I would buy either a single higher wattage one and use charging board or buy 2 single ones. Do you already have a psu?  https://www.robotbirds.co.uk/default/chargers-power-supply-leads/chargers/b6-10amp-200w-super-multi-charger.html  if not  http://www.modelsport.co.uk/overlander-rc6-vsp-80watt-7a-output-ac-dc-charger-with-fan/rc-car-products/379060  the best dual charher is hyperion but will cost 100s there are also some turnigy dual chargers on hobby king.

Your right mate iv just had a look, for an extra £20 you can get the same charger but its a dual 120w powered charger. I will have to buy a couple of charging boards.
