Hey guys, I’m looking for an analyzing charger that’s really not to pricey.It’s the analyzing function I need more than the charging since I already have an i4. I would prefer one with a 220 input rather than one which needs an external supply.
It comes with a PSU included. If you need to buy additional PSU, the price won’t be so nice.
For 4-channel, there were nice deals on Zanflare C4 recently, though they may not be repeated any time soon.
Anyway, Lii-500 is good for measuring capacity. Opus BT and Zanflare C4 can reliably measure internal resistance as well.
Aside from that, they are all good.
I have two of the Liikatola lii500 and it is an excellent charger. You get accurate mAh readings which is what I bought it for. I found some batteries that were not near the advertised capacity. It is not expensive and you can prolly find a discount code here.
(the following info only applies for the Philippines…)
I don’t think we have any Cash on Delivery options from foreign websites here in the Philippines… (Only Lazada has CoD option for some “overseas” items). I haven’t seen the ZanFlare C4 pop up on Lazada yet (I did see the ZanFlare F1 flashlight being sold by some seller on Lazada, but the price there appears to be higher). The good thing about Lazada is they handle the delivery to our address and no additional charges to pay (unlike coursing thru our PhilPost system).
As of current checking, the ZanFlare C4 is available from GearBest at a flash-sale price of $23.99. There were some discount code (usually the discount codes posted here do not work for the Philippines, but on a few rare occasions, it does) a few weeks ago that lowered the price to $19.99.
Gearbest charges a shipping fee to the Philippines (whether untracked/registered/expedited), plus we need to pay Php112 post office fee when we pick up the item from our post office (for untracked and registered shipping options).
Unless you choose the expedited shipping option, which adds more $$ (delivered to your address, no extra charges to pay when receiving item). Note though that choosing the “EMS” and “EMS Express” from Gearbest will also require to pay the Php112 post office fee when you receive the item since it is PhilPost that handles EMS.
If you like (and you’re somewhere near the vicinity of Manila), we can arrange a mini-groupbuy for our country (I think that can lower/share the shipping costs/post office fee) when there’s a discount code available that works for multiple items (usually discount code works for 1 unit, but sometimes can work for 2 or even 5 units). I don’t see local reseller of ZanFlare C4 yet here in our country.
You’re right. Just checked too, there’s a Lazada seller selling the Zanflare C4 for Php 1445 (around US$29) and accepts Cash on Delivery (no shipping fees or other charges to worry about). (price can likely be lowered slightly with the one-use-per-month Lazada discount codes, though this generally require using a credit card payment method)
