SPECIAL FEATURES
● Detachable AC and DC input power cords.
● Built-in balancing for 1– 6 LiPo, LiIon, or LiFe (LiFeSource) cells.
● Up to 6 amps charge current.
● Includes a built-in radio battery jack.
● Includes Banana to Star Plug and Banana to standard charging adapters.
STANDARD FEATURES
● A tiny built-in switching AC power supply is great for portability and cramped pit areas, yet can still deliver up to
6 amps charge current!
● Fully adjustable charge currents and multi-chemistry adaptability for a wide range of applications.
● A precise cc/cv charge algorithm carefully charges lithium-polymer, lithium-ion, or lithium-ferrite-phosphate
(LiFeSource) batteries fully and safely!
● A peak detection system with automatic trickle charge  lls NiCd and NiMH packs completely, for optimum battery
voltage and run-time. 3-20mV adjustable peak detection helps to customize charger-to-battery performance.
● A reversed LCD with backlight – previously only available in expensive racing chargers – is great for easy viewing
in any condition. Shows input, output, peak and individual cell voltages; charge current, capacity and time, and
cell chemistry.
● Push-button controls and audible tones make for easy setup and control.
● A built-in fan helps to keep all electronics cool, for long-lasting performance.
● Built-in banana jacks allow for connection with most common charge adapters.
● A detachable DC power lead with alligator clips easily connects to many 12V DC power sources.
● Solid-state reverse polarity and current overload protection ensure long, trouble-free operation.
