I have not seen anything that can match MC3000 in precision (I like the user calibration) and flexibility, but it is not the easiest charger to use.

OK, then my initial plan to get a second MC3000 is going forward, thanks.

Now the Fenix ARE-X11 is available
I have to deal with an all-russian language aliexpress-interface all the time - impossible to switch to english for more than one page switch/reload.

Hi HKJ!
I’ve been looking for the lightest weight travel charger that (a) is high current so it can charge my phone+power bank at the same time and (b) is lightweight since I am an ultralight hiker.
This one looks to be only 2.5oz and would love for you to test it:
iClever BoostCube 4.8A/24W

It cost about $20 in shipping, I am not going to do that.

Liitokala seems to have silently released a few new chargers, to complement the Lii-S1 (any polarity), which are:
1) Lii-S2 charger (dual-slot version of the Lii-S1, now supports 2A charging for one slot; any polarity insertion)
https://www.aliexpress.com/store/product/Liitokala-Lii-S2-LCD-3-7V-18650-18350-18500-16340-21700-20700B-20700-10440-14500-26650/133859_32905971697.html
2) Lii-PD4 charger only (4-slot, with digital display)

@nquinn , I am currently using this charger.
I have the QC 3.0 24W+12W USB-A 36W iClever charger.
Other than getting hot at full power, it does exceed its specifications by a bit.

It does weight about 70g.
HKJ did test USB power supplies with less than 60g.

This is a power supply, not a charger, but if you can, i want to know about how safe and good it is
this PS would be very convenient for small project
A $1 power supply, I have ordered on.

I do generally not like AA based power banks. 4xAA is about the same energy as one 18650 cell.

HKJ will do you a roundup of chargers for 2018? Or do you think this page is good enough: https://lygte-info.dk/info/roundCellChargerIndex%20UK.html ?
thanks for all the hard work!!

I have never done a roundup of chargers, in late December I do a status where I list some noteworthy products from my testing during the year.

That's what I probably meant.. I thought you sometimes showed a list of recommended chargers...

I do not have anything to say about it yet, but Xtar has promised me a review copy.
