A good 4 bay charger that could do 4x 26650@ 2A, very interesting IMO.
A good 4 bay charger that could do 4x 18650 4,35V cells, very interesting IMO.
At the moment, I have to use two chargers in order to charge 3x 26650 cells (I also have to use two chargers that will terminate at same voltage).
At the moment, I have not bothered with 4,35V cells, mostly because I want a charger that can charge several of them. Buying a bunch of SP1 chargers is not something I would consider.
Looking forward to your "dreamcharger review".. That might get me into 4,35V cells.
Thanks, I see that on the curves now. If the sample was the minus .3V then that would work well since you would get most of your capacity by 2.7 V. Even 3.0 V would be decent, I may have to check it out.
I would also like the charger to be able to charge at 250mA or lower. I am waiting for the MC0 to become for sale somewhere, but nicer would be a charger like this one, that also accepts 18650.
What is the standard charging setting, after plugging it in.
The low end voltage for 4.35V batteries makes me a bit sad, are you sure that it is only a matter of production differences or have they adjusted the voltage a bit low to be on the save side?
Do you plan to review the new sample of the LGD1 which is in your picture…?
That seems awesome but then you put this comment above…
“Before using the charger for a 4.30 volt cell I will strongly advice to check the charge voltage with a DMM: Connect a DMM parallel to the battery and check that the voltage stays below 4.35 volt all the time while charging”
@hkj
I already have seen the review of the LGcell, but I asked if you will also test the one in your picture which is a newer version. I wonder if they have changed something internally too or just the shrink wrap…
