[M4D deal ACTIVE] LiitoKala Lii-500S groupbuy

reserved

Looks like a nice charger.

I do not know much about Liitokala, The newest version I suppose?

I wonder what the difference in accuracy[Capacity]would be since it can only discharge @ 500mAh , unlike my Opus which can discharge 1000mAh?

One thing for certain it will take twice as long as my Opus @ 1000mAh discharge current.

I use 1000mAh Discharge current for ALL batteries 18650 and bigger on my Opus.

No 21700 support?

Click the link. Banggood shows it supports 21700 in their description.

Rechargeable battery specifications: 26650,21700,18650,18350, 20650,14500, AA, AAA, etc.

The aliexpress store has more info. It can take 21700x4 and 26650x2 + 18650x2, etc. HJK has not done a review yet, I'm curious what else was changed.

Thanks! I missed that detail.

I’ve passed up a few of the recent new charger deals because they use micro-USB ports for power. This one comes with a real power supply.
Ordered. Thank you, M4D M4XY.

Looks to be a worthy upgrade over the original lii 500 at a good price.

I also noticed the cell orientation has changed with the positive at the top.

21700 and 2 x 2A support welcomed.

Just from the pic above looks like there is plenty of room left with the 26650/18650 in the slot.

The new display looks brighter also.

No 300mA charging current (unlike old lii-500).

I guess for some people lack of 300mAh charging current will be a major drawback. Myself the smallest cells I ever charge are AAA and 18350s so I’m probably going to get the new one.

Thanks. Just ordered.

Thanks for the deal. Ordered - this will be a nice upgrade from my Xtar VC4.

Ordered, thank you!

DOES ANYONE know the answer to this??

I was NOT able to determine this by the information provided,maybe I missed something?

Can this charger display information for ALL FOUR SLOTS at the same time like my Opus? I can deal [be more patient] w/ only 500mAh discharge,I can not deal w/ info for 1 or 2 slots at a time AND 500mAh discharge! I hope I can see all 4 slots at once , then I will get it

I only have 8 X 4 bay chargers!……….Depending on the answer above. I may justify this for a Birthday present on Tuesday June 4th. :person_facepalming:

The XTAR dragon can only do Two at a time,major reason why I did not get it.

Here's another "can't find the answer" question:

Does this have a ~3.7v storage charge function?

Strongly doubt that it has storage mode. It would then for sure be mentioned on Banggood or Aliexpr Lii shop product description.

Ordered. Thanks! :+1:

I suspected as much. Thanks.

Guess I'll keep tickling the switch on my Opus 3100.

No.

One of my gripes with Lii-500 was too closely spaced out slots. From the pictures, it looks like this Lii-500S seems to have a bit more room, so that’s a welcome change.

I’m guessing the current display is just the selected current and not actual current, just like the old model?

Anyway, I mainly use my Lii-500 for discharge capacity tests, and this Lii-500S does not offer any improvements there, so I’ll skip it. I do like the new display though.
