Hope Gyrfalcon thinks the same way, they already proved they can do fine with multi-chemistries-chargers like All-44/88, only the lack of features keeps me away from these chargers.
The Gyrfalcon S8000, S4000, and other upcoming new products adopt a brand-new, highly reliable hardware solution that distinguishes itself from traditional Buck circuits. More specific details will be available in the review report. In many aspects compared to previous products, we will do better.
My charger sits usually in my living room, not in a workshop.
The first batch of mass-produced Gyrfalcon S8000 and S4000 Pro are black. in the future, we can provide multiple color options based on user feedback.
We can also share our models, with color schemes provided by BLF members, and then conduct a vote, to offer color options based on the final voting results.
I think it is better to add or improve the charger than to invest in less important things.
I prefer that you use all your efforts in a good loader that has the maximum options so that the user can change any configuration value (that is not capped).
Mark 3.18v and with a professional meter there are 3.19 to be able to adjust it.
Mark 1.45A and a professional meter gives 1.5 so you can adjust it to 1.5A.
That would be my dream!
I did it on a firmware for a Lipo charger and it was great but the electronics were not that good.
Then you can create colorful versions.
The option of a version with the configuration options or add other options more voted in BLF would be great!
Even a list of interested in your purchase to get a good price, created that would sign up many, I would in this case and then compare it with others.

Gyrfalcon S8000 and S4000 Pro provides calibration function to achieve this goal.
I like them as well. Unfortunately @HKJ isnāt active anymore (which I can absolutely understand after testing a few chargers myself ā itās so much work!).
Similarly, I followed @oweban and 1lumenās approach to reviewing flashlights when I became obsessed with testing flashlights. While I enjoy testing flashlights, I feel like 43 reviews in 2023 is a bit too much. Iāll do fewer reviews so that thereās more time to spend on modifying flashlights, producing factory tour videos, or doing podcasts.
Iām becoming bit obsessed with testing battery chargers. Iāll eventually buy a thermal camera (e.g. TOPDON TC001) to include thermal images of chargers at a later point. But I digressā¦
Be careful, that could end in a burnout quite easily.
Iāve checked a few so far and got mixed results. Some work great, some work sometimes and some donāt work at all. The supported length is between 31 and 76 mm and it works best with button-top or at least slightly raised top contacts. Batteries with a small diameter have to be inserted slightly angled.
