Does this charger come with a power cord to plug into the wall, and if so, is it a USA style or Eurpean style cord/plug

rcdragon (-121%)
no you need a dc adapter 12v 5000ma

Is the charge rate linier or do you select from preset charge rates like .5, 1.0, and 1.5 amp ?

Steven (22%)
You can adjust the charge rate in .1 incriments. So 2200mah lipo adjust to 2.2a or 2100mah would be 2.1a if charging at 1c rates.

eiliux (81%)
You can choose your own charge rate by 0.1A step.

onlineflyer (-140%)
it is linear .5, .6, .7, .8, .9 etc.

Emilio (42%)
the charge rate is linear for example 1.1A 1.2 A it's 0,1 A

Michael (67%)

Which connection/plug is on this charger.. is it deans or what? :D

xp7amrkr (77%)
Hi Oliver, the charge plug connectors are the standard 3.5mm banana-plugs. The charger is sold with a couple of standard charge cables and most of the standard charge cables have the banana-plugs.

3520Kramer (79%)
Hey.. I've received it a time ago and yes, it has deans-plugs on *) But thanks for the answer anyway *)

Allnos04 (25%)
mine came a a huge selection of charge plugs. Deans was one of them. This is a pretty good charger,I've had mine for a few months and no probs.

pavcon (10%)
T-plug..

Kovacs (5%)
Hy! It has a Deans T connector, and several adapters in the box. E.g. BEC, Futaba servo connector(for battery packs).

onlineflyer (-140%)
yes, it is a replica deans plug.

Can a person charge two 2cell or 3cell batteries at once like say 2 5000mah 2cell Tenergy packs and do it so 5amps goto each?

It doesn't state it but does the B6 have a Lipo Balancer into the charger? Or would I need a separate balancer?

Cheers

captain (54%)
yes it does have an internal balancer but from what i have herd it isn't very accurate. i have the same charger and have been using it for 4mo. now and have not had any problems. i also use a seperate balancer just to insure my batts. are always balanced. hope this helps.

Njustream (15%)
Yes you can balance with the charger but you will may need an adapter to make your balance contacts to fit.

pavcon (10%)
yes it has a balancer and balance mode

onlineflyer (-140%)
It has a balancer, but some have stated that it isn't exact. I haven't found an issue with the voltage difference.

captain (54%)
was wondering if anybody knows how to power up the b6 just got mine today, hooked it up to car battery and nothing, no display, no charging, is there a special way to power up?

roelle08 (25%)
don't plug the power cable into the charger before you plug it into your power system

onlineflyer (-140%)
did you get a power supply with this? You have to buy that separate. they sell them on this site for about $10.

manu42 (86%)
is it good for A123 ? thanks for your answer

Alvaro (62%)
It is capable of chragring A123's pacs, but I don't know how it works, since I use LIPO

ddekel (75%)
B6 can charge Life4 (A123)
i think B5 doesn't

psichosis (87%)
I am using B6 to charge and balance A123 and I am very happy.

manu42 (86%)

Emilio (42%)

jason (25%)

flyguy-matt (93%)
Sure if the voltage and amps are correct.

Kaskone (25%)

When I placed my order this item was in stock and the items showed in reserved status with my order and now after a few days my order has not been shiped. What is your meaning of reserved....? and why not lock in the items with the orders as soom as you posted the orders...

jbailey19 (15%)
You are just in line waiting for them to get to your order. They used to ship in a couple of days. Now it seems to take them a week.
