SkyRC BD250 250W 35A LiPo/LiHV/NiMH Battery Discharger & Analyzer
The SkyRC BD250 35 Amp LiPo/LiHV/NiMH Battery Discharger & Analyzer displays real-time battery voltage, discharged capacity and discharge current, making it a great option to use when you need to identify your best batteries for competition. This is also a great tool to save time when discharging for storage, as it allows you to discharge your battery faster than when using a standard discharger.
Plus, you can use the PC software to export battery discharge data to your PC, allowing you to see which battery performs best! With PC software connected, the BD250 allows you to export the battery voltage values at 30 second intervals (for the first six minutes). The slower the voltage reduces during discharge, the better the battery performance.
Features:
- Simple, Robust & Powerful: Upgraded from BD200, the BD250 is a powerful discharging device that allows you to precisely measure battery capacity. It takes the guesswork out of choosing the best performing battery for your application. BD250 offers a maximum of 250 Watts/35 Amps to discharge your battery and will test virtually any battery type or size. It's small, with a high-performance cooling system and uses MOSFETS from the well-known IXYS, to make sure it can discharge at 250 watts continuously.
- Breakthrough Cooling System: A unibody and larger fan pushes air downward through an extruded aluminum heat sink. As air passes vertically through the heat sink, it absorbs heat and carries it out. Due to cooling efficiency, BD250 can discharge at 250 Watts continuously.
- Simple & Intuitive Operation:
- Rotary Dial, simplifies operation.
- Digital LED Display to provide clearer information.
- Easy-to-Use PC Software for Data Analysis: BD250 is a voltage oriented discharger. Accepted voltage ranges from 5.40V to 35.00V. After the discharge process completes, rotate the button to view the real-time battery voltage every 30 seconds for the first six minutes. The slower the voltage reduces during discharge, the better the battery performance. This feature can help select your best performing battery. Plus, with PC software connected, BD250 allows you to export the battery voltage value at 30 seconds intervals (for the first six minutes).

I've been using the earlier version SkyRC BD200 200W discharger for years. It still works very well, but no question this newer SkyRC BD250 250W discharger discharges my 7S 4500mah packs down to storage level much faster with similar accuracy. I am thinking of replacing the older version SkyRC BD200 with another SkyRC BD250.
I Use it with parallel board, so I can discharge up to four battery in the same time.
This really is a simple nice discharger that hasn't let me down yet. I use it specifically for my 6s 5000mah packs and it makes short work of them. I would definitely recommend this discharger.
Great unit, you can set a finish voltage that stops the process and a nice loud alarm let’s you know it’s done. Excellent price and value from HeliDirect, much better than other retailers.
Works as advertised and very useful one month into ownership. I do question the accuracy of the voltage as shown and would be careful about taking lipos right down to the minimum limit. I say this because the voltage usually reads 1-2 tenths higher on the BD-250 than on my high quality charger and battery meter. Overall though it’s a good investment to use for getting your batteries down to their storage charge, and the increased wattage available on this unit means it takes a lot less time than the cheap units. I would recommend this unit to a friend.
This is a simple to use and effective tool to help maintain the health of your lipo batteries. Nice product that can be a essential tool in your hobby room.

Simple to use, well designed and good value.
I own two different ISDT dischargers and neither one can consistently discharge at their maximum advertised wattage. However, this one can! It has many options to analyze the data while doing so but it has to be hooked up to a pc to export the data as far as I can tell.
