The SKY RC B6neo 200W miniature charger has been designed with the aim of providing everything needed for high current charging, with simple operation, in a "half palm" or "vest pocket" size. B6neo allows you to charge and discharge common types of cells (NiCd, NiMH, Li-poly, Li-ion, Li-Fe, Li-HV, Pb), in addition, it is equipped with a built-in six-channel balancer that ensures very safe and comfortable charging of lithium batteries. It can also work in regulated power supply mode with an output voltage adjustable between 5-27 V and a current of 1-10 A.
The intelligent software offers the functions of the usual function and is designed for practical users who purchase the charger to charge batteries:
- program for new types of "high voltage" lithium batteries LiHV with terminal voltage for charging up to 4.35 V
- setting the end voltage for charging and discharging for lithium batteries (allows gentler charging, which is liked by aviators, or, on the contrary, brutal overcharging, which is adored by "car enthusiasts")
- programs for charging maintenance-free lead AGM batteries and charging lead batteries at low temperatures
- measurement of total voltage and voltage of individual cells (for lithium batteries) even outside of charging/discharging
- measuring the internal resistance of the entire set and individual cells (for lithium batteries)
Overview of basic functions and parameters
- Input supply voltage 10 – 27 V DC (to fully utilize the power of the charger, the power supply should provide a voltage of at least 24 V) when powered from a battery or mains stabilized source or 12-20 V when powered from a USB source (PD3.0/QC)
- For charging and discharging 1 – 15 NiCd/NiMH cells, 1 – 6 Li-ion/Li-poly/Li-Fe/LiHV cells or 6/12 V lead-acid batteries with liquid electrolyte and maintenance-free AGMs
- Adjustable charging current 0.1 A - 10.0 A
- Adjustable discharge current (0.1 A - 2.0 A)
- Max. charging power 200 W when powered from a mains supply or car battery or 80 W when powered from a USB source (PD3.0/QC)
- Max. power for discharge 24 W
- Termination of charging using automatic delta-peak for NiCd and NiMH accumulators
- Lithium and Pb batteries are charged using the "constant current/constant voltage" method
- Adjustable delta-peak detection sensitivity for NiCd and NiMH batteries
- Adjustable terminal voltage for charging and discharging for lithium batteries
- Repeated cyclic charge/discharge or discharge/charge operation for NiCd and NiMH batteries, up to 5 cycles
- Three charging modes for lithium batteries - normal charging, balancing charging and storage charging/discharging
- Three charging modes for lead-acid batteries - for normal lead-acid "car batteries", for lead-acid AGM batteries (batteries with electrodes separated by a glass fiber separator impregnated with electrolyte) and for charging lead-acid batteries at low temperatures (-20°C to +5°C).
- Termination of charging when the set time or the supplied charge is exceeded
- Measurement of the total voltage of the set and individual cells (for lithium batteries)
- Measurement of the total internal resistance of the set and individual cells (for lithium batteries)
- Backlit LCD display with a simple and clear menu and display of parameters during charging/discharging
- A number of warning text messages contribute to safe operation – wrong input voltage, wrong connection, unsuitable battery or its condition, wrong output polarity, etc.
- Protection against reverse polarity and short circuit at the output.
- Fan for forced cooling.
- Compact plastic box, miniature dimensions
The charger is equipped with an XT60 output socket and a universal socket for JST-XH service connectors, allowing direct connection of battery power cables and JST-XH service connectors of 2-6S sets - if you use sets with XT60 and JST-XH connectors, you can do without charging cables and adapters. You can use standard Sky RC or RC System adapters to connect the service connectors of other systems.
Note: When charging lead-acid batteries, the charger uses a final voltage of 2.40 V/cell (or 2.46 V/cell in the program for AGM batteries and in the program for cold charging) - for this reason, it is suitable for charging classic lead-acid batteries (car batteries) and gel accumulators with a reversible valve. It is not suitable for charging gas-tight gel batteries, which must not be charged at more than 2.30 V/cell.
