Test/review of Charger Xtar MC4S

Is the Xtar MC4S supposed to work with USB-C to USB-C cable? Or just USB-A to USB-C?

Based on the review, this Xtar really did fail with the NiMh charging part. I think this model will be one of the first in the “MC” series to support both Li-Ion and NiMh, but with the NiMh part failing quite miserably… (Most of the other Xtar MC series appear to support Li-Ion charging only).

I may have missed the info about the max charging rate, assuming the USB power source has sufficient current.
Is the following correct:

- when charging 4x NiMh, the charging rate is 4x 1A (and doesn’t charge at 0.5A) [to be more precise: around 0.8Amp charge rate, based on the charging graphs above]

  • when charging Li-Ion, if 1 or 2 slots, then max 1A; and when charging 3 or 4 slots, max charge current is 0.5A
