S4 plus is currently upgraded to V3.0. Performance has been improved.
The Vapcell S4 Plus is a Super,Revolutionary,Intelligent charger ,3A each slot ,12A in
total charging current with almost all cylindrical rechargeable batteries,such as 16340,
10440, 14500, 16340, 18500, 18650, 26650, 21700 20700,even button top or PCB
21700,20700, which eliminate to own several chargers.
The S4 Plus automatically detects and charging Li-ion,Ni-Mh and Ni-Cd batteries,
Intelligent charging circuit selects the optimal charging mod (CC,CV and -dV/dt) for a
given battery and each slot independently charge.
The charger can measure the internal resistance (DC IR) of the battery intelligently, and
automatically distribute the appropriate charging current or discharge current according
to the internal resistance of the battery.
S4 plus charger have Manual and Auto mode selection for charging and discharging
currents.
S4 plus have five mode: Charge ,Discharge,Cap test( Capacity Test),Storage
，
Repair.
The capacity of batteries can be accurately measured by Discharge mode and Cap test
mode, and li-ion batteries and Ni-Mh and Ni-Cd batteries can be repaired by Repair
mode.If li-ion batteries want to be stored, users can use storage mode to extend battery
life
Furthermore,LCD display show voltage ,capacity, temperature, internal resistance ,
charging time and percentage of capacity clearly.
For better use of the charger, please read the instructions.
