Optimized operating software

When charging or discharging, BC6 has an 'AUTO' function that sets the feeding current or the cell count of Lithium battery automatically. Especially for Lithium batteries, it can prevent the over-charging can lead to an explosion by users fault. Every program in the unit is controlled with mutual links and communication for every possible error so it introduces a maximum safety. These can be set at users option.


- Dual input power

BC6 employs the circuit that can be operated with the input power of AC(Alternating Current) or DC(Direct Current). For AC input, it contains a AC-DC switching power supplier which has 5A of power capacity and maximum output power of 50Watts for charging. As a result it can charge up to 15 cells of NiCd/NiMH and 6 series of Lithium batteries with maximum current of 5.0A.

 

- Individual voltage balancer for Lithium batteries inside

BC6 has an individual-cell-voltage balancer inside. So it does not need any balancer separately when charging Lithium batteries (LiIo/LiPo/LiFe) for cell voltage balancing.

** When the 'Balance charge' mode being performed, the balancing adapter should be connected to the balancing tab of battery pack, as well as the charger's charging lead should be connected to the output of battery pack.

And also, please pay attention to the polarity of the battery pack's output which goes to the charger's output. If it is reversed, the short-circuit can be happened on the battery pack.


- Balance individual cells on discharge

BC6 also can monitor and balance individual cells of the Lithium battery pack during the discharge process. If the voltage of any one cell varies abnormally, the process will be stopped with the error message.

- Accept various types of Lithium battery

BC6 can accept three types of Lithium batteries - LiIo, LiPo and LiFe. They have different characteristics by their chemistry. You can select any one of them that you are going to process before the job.

- Lithium battery 'Fast' and 'Storage' mode

You can charge Lithium battery for special purposes. 'Fast' charge reduces the charging time of Lithium battery and 'Storage mode controls the final voltage of the battery to be suit for long time storage.

- Data store/load

For users convenience it can store maximum 5 data of different batteries. You can establish the data contains program setting of the battery to charge or discharge continually. These data can be called out at any time you need and the process can be executed without program setting.

- Cyclic charging/discharging

Perform 1 to 5 cycles of charge>discharge or discharge>charge continually for battery refreshing and balancing.

- PC based analysis using USB communication

For technical expert, BC6 offers PC based program can analysis the characteristic of the battery by USB port. It shows a graph of voltage, current, capacity and temperature curves. It also shows the individual voltage of each cell in the Lithium battery pack.


- Robust outer aluminum case

High-quality aluminum case is durable and very efficient to cool out the internal heat

Works well. Internal A/C supply major feature. Needs separate jack for temp sensor if you use computer software. Note: Some Male Banana Plugs are not buil for use that involves carrying current, and may cause a voltage offset, which confuses the balancing circuitry. The charge current limit on the version I have is usually 1 amp for most battery voltages. Not 5 amp as you might believe until you look at the wattage limit.

Excellent charger and I can only recommend it, especially since it works on AC/DC.

I bought this one for ease of only having a "one box" setup for charging, and have not been disaponted yet. Nice charger despite the price. Balance mode works very good, have been able to re-balance packs that were a but "stagered" after running. Overall experience on this one is very good. Would recommend to others....

My criteria for a charger were that it would balance charge LiPos at a reasonable rate, work on AC as well as DC, and charge the other batteries I have as well (like NiMH and NiCd transmitter batteries). This charger does all that. And the AC/DC converter is internal, no irritating wall wart. I knocked it down a star because the board for the balancing connector is a separate piece and a separate purchase, and it is quite pricey. It's still a very good charger.

Super chargeur et croyez moi, le prix en vaut le coup. Tout est très simple a comprendre et utilisé. Les indications pendant la charge son claires et surtout important. Attention, vous devez commander le petit adapteur E-Station pour pouvoir balancer vos LiPo. Ca coute environ 9$. Pour les type de prise Align, ces le modèle 124. Un autre option pas dispendieux mais pratique ces le petit controleur de température qui ce vend environ 6$. Ca aide a éviter des accidents de surchauffe.
