About GT1000
Description:
 Model GT1000 for use with LiPo, LiIon, LiPoHV, LiFePO4 (or A123), NiCd, NiMH, and Pb
(Lead Acid) battery packs
Features
 Selectable charge rates range from 25mA to 40A
 Continuous maximum output power rating, 1000W @ +30VDC input voltage, 408W @
+12VDC input voltage
 Native support of JST XH balance connectors allows direct connection of 1s-6s LiPo/LiHV
Batteries without requiring any adapters. Also supports Revolectrix SPA and MPA Safe
Parallel Adapters; the industry's safest methods for parallel charging multiple, same-cell-
count packs. These items are peripheral products, available separately or as part of Combo
packages, not included as a part of the basic GT1000 unit
 Smart Power Management allows customer to select between programmable input power
sources. Available settings include power supply input current limit, input low voltage limit,
regenerative discharge rate and voltage limit. GT1000 stores 3 set-ups for Power Supplies
and 3 set-ups for Lead Acid Batteries and can be programmed to ask for verification one
time on start-up
 GT1000 supports charging through the main discharge wires only for certain scenarios (see
features tab for full details). For balanced charging, the unit requires balance wires in
combination with the discharge wires (charge rate support up to 40A max)
 Initiate charge, discharge, store, monitor, and multiple cycles at the GT1000
 The unit comes equipped with basic presets for all battery chemistries currently available as
well as 28 EMPTY user preset positions. During the course of operation, any changes that
are made at the charger may be named and saved ("SAVE AS") or saved over ("SAVE") to
the user presets bank. The process is analogous to opening a document in a PC
application, making changes, and then using the "Save" or "Save As" menu options from
the PC application to store the unique setup parameters chosen during the course of using
the charger for its intended purpose; charging and managing your batteries. Best of all,
everything happens at the charger, which makes it ideal for taking it on the road
 0.1mohm resolution allows accurate four point internal resistance measurement of each cell
 Environmentally friendly, regenerative discharge capability of up to 1000W. Unlike
traditional methods of discharge, which deplete the output battery's energy in the form of
heat across a transistor, regenerative discharge takes most of that energy and puts it back
into the input battery. In other words, when you discharge your LiPo for storage, you will be
re-charging your Lead Acid input battery. The total amount of power that you can achieve is
limited only by the amount of current that your input battery can accept, or 1000W,
whichever is lower
 GT1000 is also equipped with a traditional, 50W internal discharge capability which is non-
regenerative
 Large cooling fan
 Massive over-sized internal heat sink
