fasttech has it for ~20 after the coupon GOTECH if you can wait a week.
As suggested in my prior post - given the split in marketing between Jetbeam and Sysmax/Nitecore (August) - this is likely(?) the v2 board in an upgraded housing (sliding metal contacts - better than what HKJ tested here. maybe their reading these forums?)
As the site is currently lacking a lot of information on the i4 Pro and the manual cannot be download (check out there downloadpage here - transition(?) stage) waiting to hear back and will post info when/if received
So when I tried to “open a case” to cancel the order, they asked me to provide pictures of the defective item…… That I had ordered 10 mins before.
So rather than try to go through that nonsense, I’ll just let them send it to me then test/open it up for the good of the forum.
Funny thing is, a while ago I posted link to DinoDirect with charger that looked like this one but had different brand name, funny, isnt it, that now its “finally” released by Sysmax “officially”.
Looking at DD’s listing it looks like the only difference is additional white color, slight body restyling and “PRO” added to its name.
Metallic sliders? Ok, thats something that ‘’might’’ add to durability of this device.
So, why would it be worth buying if you already have i4 V2?
Sure, if you never had one, this is a great deal, much cheaper than i4 ever was.
No veer, not a release from sysmax, but from jetbeam
Jetbeam ≠ Sysmax/Nitecore (~= August)
Allright, didnt know that, do you have some link confirming your statement, Id love to read on about that to be more clear as to whats going on :D!
Perhaps there will be two chargers, one i4 PRO from one company and the other i4 V2 from other company lol?
Hi veer… thanks for the query and here’s some links (I got a little confused too a few weeks ago which is why I posted the link above in my prior post):
Official Terminated SYSMAX Agency for JETBeam
and
A letter to all JETBeam distributors
and
I hope this is helpful.
IMO, if the “white” JetBeam has the v2 internals and the improved metal slider, its a decent improvement, but maybe still wait for a v3(?) when “they” get better charging of the NimH’s (considering HJK’s review)
Hey, flash.light, thanks for those links ;)!
BTW, my V3 would be one with LCD and charge/discharge options with ability to set charge and discharge currents :D!
Oh and btw, excuse me for double post - but who did all the R&D work, JetBeam? While Sysmax was only distributor that also used their own Nitecore trademark on rebranded JetBeam products?
How do you find products for sale on the Jetbeam website other than that link?
Its only 300$…
i was trying to attract some attention for some unpaid shill.
for the fun of it.

Guys i need a charger, mine went bust 5 mins ago heard a pop and it wouldn’t switch on.
Is this a good one to buy, Someone deleted the coupon code !
Will this charger also charge AA/AAA rechargeables ?
Do you guys have any other suggestions.
Oh by the way i need it to work on 240V 50/60HZ

>nitecore i4 v2 charger. nitecore is better brand than jetbeam. Jetbeam is a ghost company. nowadays. fake.
btw, the nitecore charger can be had for 12$ shipped, see the unpaid cryshil thread
how can i order nitecore charger ? can you post me a link directing towards it… thanks.
Ok, Ive found it:
http://kaidomain.com/product/details.S020375
Looks similar, but not identical, no metal rails etc
The newest version?
No, if you click that link you see its different looking than Sysmax/Nitecore i4 V2 charger and it has different name, Enedepots lol, looks like its trying to seize part of the market with ENE in its name, like Eneloop :D!
I actually meant the one at Wallbuy, http://wallbuys.com/crazypromotions/10 I don’t see anything indicating that it is the V2.
