XTAR VX4 Review

Thanks for that Sammy…
So if you were charging the lithium ion 1.5 volt double AA and triple A’s… would you just set the VX4 at 3 amps and let the VX4 and the batteries themselves do all the legwork in terms of setting the current what it needs to be… or would you manually reduce the current on the VX4 yourself?

It doesn’t matter because the VX4 switches into a special mode where you can’t set the current.

Here is my review:

Does the VX4 “remember” the selected charge current (eg. 500mA) after power down?
I like to always charge @ 500mA and am wondering if I need to select it each time.

Thanks.

It resets and automatically tries to select an appropriate charge current for 3.7V Li-ion cells. You can then adjust the max charge current.

It is 500mA for 1.2V Ni-MH cells.

Got it. Thanks for the reply.
I suppose it’s fine if I have to manually select the charge current each time for my 18650/21700 batteries.
