Finally, I want to do a small survey. Do you know that ozone can be used for disinfection? During the outbreak, will you use alcohol to disinfect or an ozone generator?
Hi. Damn god, when you would create new version of rc2 moon.
With magnet, 3200 li-ion or possibility to easy change accu, and with hicri led onboard. Also, more light would be appreciated (150-200lumen) and more user friendly UI - possibility to switch off light quickly, not
throught strobe or all modes.
The best variant would be anduril software with color temperature change.
In this form-factor this would be absolutly win.
PB2S with 2x Samsung 50E charges iPhone 11 Pro with 8.8v at 1A (according to the display). Tested with original iPhone USB-C to Lightning cable and Anker Powerline/PowerlineII USB-A to Lightning cables. Is this correct? Seems slow.
It mentions that sometimes, the VC8 will not properly charge NiMh batteries to fully-charged status, and sometimes, it overcharges the batteries.
(a 2000mAh NiMh gets charged to over 3000mAh, or sometimes just 600mAh).
What might be the possible problem for this and can it be fixed?
Also, the “grading” function for NiMh batteries is also affected (“grading” function will do a charge-discharge-charge cycle), however, the “charging” portion may sometimes not charge to “fully-charged” state, so the “discharged” capacity will be lower than actual. Another thing, is the third “charge” cycle seems to not charge to fully-charged state too.
Any explanation yet for the Xtar VC8 which, based on HKJ’s test, sometimes will not charge NiMh batteries to full (only charges partially then stops).
Also, the Xtar VC4S seems to do the same thing when using the “Grading” (capacity test) mode — for Li-Ion batteries, it will ” Charge (FULL) - Discharge - Charge (Full)“, but for NiMh batteries it will ”Charge (FULL) - Discharge - Charge (partial charge only)“. See review done by HKJ.
So after a “grading” test mode for NiMh batteries on the VC4S and VC8, the battery will only get partially charged after the testing is done.
