Nothing more than earlier positive feedbacks can be added here. This charger is simply the best in class, the best in feature/price ratio. All features in place, reliable algorithms included. Highly recommended to invest in.

Best charger I've had

Nov 14, 2007

Excellent charger! I use it with all my packs, ranging from 3S 2170mAh up to 6S 3200mAh. When at the field I sometimes charge my 6S packs at 2C, which gives me a fully charged pack in 25 minutes! This charger balances really well (I've used a professional grade voltmeter to check the individual cell voltages after balancing). Price at Hobbycity is the lowest awailable for this charger (to my knowledge).

The Charger is excellent in quality of the product & it's functionality. The e-Station chargers are the original "Bantam" chargers on which all of the other chargers are based.

It is superior, but you do certainly pay for the quality, & I was prepared to do so.

BUT, a problem that I cannot believe others have not mentioned.

If you want to use Lipo charge in "Balance Mode" (ie not just through the main battery [Deans] connector), YOU CANNOT USE THE CHARGER AS SUPPLIED.

When bought elsewhere, the is always the option of selecting you "Free Adaptor" for your battery type.

In the case of HC, as all Lipos have the JST-XH balance connector (OK, Polyquest have their own)THE ADAPTOR SHOULD BE INCLUDED!!!

So it is sitting there unused for Lipo. I eventually found that HC do list the adaptor, but it is not in stock & no date for arrival.

Have ordered adaptor from the USA.

So a 5 (6?) Star product, spoilt by not including the adaptor which is essential.

BTW, NEVER charge Lipos without using balance mode. Even at correct(1C) charge, if there is a faulty cell, the charger (even the best) will continue to try to take the pack up to the correct voltage for the 7.4, 11.1, 14.8, pack)& the pack WILL CATCH FIRE. Sure you can charge withought using the balance plug perhaps 100 times (or perhaps 5 times), but one day you will unknowingly have a faulty cell & a LIPO FIRE!!

BC8 Charger

Nov 14, 2007

An excellent charger. Recommended by an associate who has tried many different chargers for LiPo batteries. At 150Watts has the reserve power to ensure the battery takes a full charge which is not possible with the cheap low power units.

Comes complete with quaility input and various output cables.

Value for money.

e-Station

Nov 14, 2007

There is nothing that an e-Station charger can't handle. Most others out here are a decent copy of this charger as you'll notice the menus are the same and the specs.
