I am, but I was foiled by the brand misspelling thing⌠Liitokala, Liitokaala, Liiitokala, LittoKala, etc. I found the 500S on the âLittokaalaâ now. Thanks!
I think I might go for the 6 bay one, as I prefer tactile buttons instead of touch-sensitive ones.
The only 500S coupon Iâm seeing on his website is the one that he publicly stated in the original post of this thread, and it has been dead for quite some time now.
It seems silly to add this, but I meant to say it a month ago . I found it somewhat humorous that LiitoKala released a Lii-500S charger that will discharge cells just weeks after I purchased the old Lii-500 that doesnât. I needed that feature, spent many months searching for a cheap charger with a discharge mode, and would have paid the few dollars extra to get it.
Fast Test on the old charger is simply useless; no idea what it could be good for. Oh well . Thatâs how it usually goes and glad that they replaced that function with a useful one on the new version.
Iâm not a fan of the new display, though it seems to be a trend with some Chinese companies lately to use reverse LCDâs. It doesnât seem too bad in the photos, though.
Still (or again) on sale at Banggood so the code wonât work. This is the very first time Iâm wishing a sale would end so I can order and save some cash
BTW, the code has to be entered during checkout in the coupon code entry field right?
Hi all, can I ask a silly question? Any idea why this unit doesnt come with a LiFePo charging and discharging test like the Miboxer C4000 or the Opus BT-C100 ?
Yeah itâs a bit of a shame.
They have 2 new chargers, the 500S and the S6
500S has Test and Discharge modes but no support for LiFePO4
S6 has support for LiFePO4 but no Test and Discharge modes.
A combination of both chargers would have been ideal.
I got 2x LiitoKala Lii-500S chargers this week (thanks for the groupbuy code OP!) and I think I figured out a way to enable the backlight to be permanently displayed. If you long press on the â1â button, the backlight should stay on permanently. Well, at least thatâs what Iâve seen on mine.
When they write that 21700 are supported they mean just the flat top ones. In fact, often you read IMR 21700 (which means flat top). But the IMR 21700 is supported by many old chargers! In my old XTar VC Dragon a flat top 21700 fits wonderfully. But if you want to be sure to charge any 21700, then you need bays 77mm long (the Nitecore NL 21700 button top is 76,9mm long)
Also, sometimes even the IMR needs a button top. For example, the new Lumintop GT94X works with IMR 21700 button top.
