Chargers

Hi
I have used the Icharger 1010B+ in many years now and has been pretty happy with them, but at the end off last season I notice that they stopped charging at ca 41,7 and I have been thinking about get them calibrated or to buy new ones .
so I have looked at the Cellpro10XP and The icharge 3010B , so guys ...what do you use and why?

Rune,
I have used the CellPro 10xp for a long time and they really do work great. No issues noted out of mine what so ever. Over the past year I have been using the Icharger 4010 with great results. I have been very happy with this charger. It allows me to charge 2 10s packs on 1 charger as well as use the discharge and cycle feature that they have. Out of the two chargers if I were to purchase 2 Cellpro's or 1 4010 I would say go with the 4010.

After using the new Venom chargers for some time I am a big fan...

From someone who mainly flies glow, I'm very happy with my two 10XP, been using them for over three years now. The only thing I've a bit of an issue is their stock electric fan, but you can replace them with aftermarket one from F3A Unlimited.

The 10s has a good storage setting that will bring your packs up to 50% charging at 1C
The XP storage mode first discharges then charges at less than 1 amp taking forever to get to 50% if you have large capacity packs.
I had hoped that cellpro would do a firmware update so the storage setting on the XP would charge at 1C like the10s but I got no response from cellpro

I have been using 3 CellPro 10s for over 6 years to allow triple redundency. These three charges are used almost weekly to charge 10s packs at 6A.
Only twice, I need to send one of the three chargers back. The cost is $60 (fixed rate?) to fix it.
I would buy CellPro units again, for durability and quality.

I agree. Excellent chargers. I just wanted people to be aware that the XP does not have a useful storage setting for large capacity packs. I wish they would do a firmware update to solve the issue.

Hi
thanks for input , i checked my chargers ones more and found that if they are Connected to the batteries for some time after they are finished (its enough With maybe 10-15 min) the batteries has dropped 0,2-0,4V som if I disconnect when they are finnished I got 41,98 on battery and got 42,02 on charger so so fare I think they are ok , but I think I start changing them soon any way they are maybe 4-5 years so the have soon done their job.
