SKY RC S100neo charger

Product detailed description

The small SKY RC S100neo 200W charger is designed to provide everything you need for charging. It allows you to charge and discharge common cell types (NiCd, NiMH, Li-Pol, Li-ion, Li-Fe, Li-HV, Pb), is equipped with a built-in powerful six-channel balancer (1 A/cell), which ensures very safe and comfortable charging of lithium batteries. It can operate in regulated power supply mode with an output voltage adjustable in the range of 2–30 V and a current limit of 0.1–12 A.

Features:

• Program for new types of lithium LiHV batteries with a final charging voltage of up to 4.35 V
• Setting the final charging and discharging voltage for lithium batteries (allows for more gentle charging, which is popular with pilots, or, conversely, overcharging, which is popular with "car enthusiasts" - max. 4.22V for LiPo, 4.12V for Li-ion, 3.67V for LiFe, 4.37V for LiHV with current firmware)
• Programs for charging lead-acid AGM batteries and charging lead-acid batteries at low temperatures
• Measurement of the total voltage and voltage of individual cells (for lithium batteries) even outside of charging/discharging - and even without the need for power: S100neo can function as a standalone tester, powered by the battery under test
• Measurement of the internal resistance of the entire set and individual cells (for lithium batteries)
• Special program for running-in of DC motors (after selected time at set voltage and current)
• Connector for temperature sensor for safe charging of NiMH batteries

Overview of basic functions and parameters

• Input supply voltage 6–30 V DC (to fully utilize the charger's power, the power supply should provide at least 24 V) when powered by a battery or a stabilized mains power supply
• Mains power supply 100–240 V/50–60 Hz
• For charging and discharging 1–15 NiCd/NiMH cells, 1–6 Li-ion/Li-poly/Li-Fe/LiHV cells or 6/12/24 V lead-acid batteries with liquid electrolyte and maintenance-free AGM
• Adjustable charging current 0.1–12.0 A
• Adjustable discharging current (0.1–2.0 A)
• Max. charging power 200 W when powered by an external mains power supply or car battery or 100 W when powered by the built-in mains power supply
• Max. discharge power 5 W
• Termination of charging using automatic delta-peak for NiCd and NiMH batteries
• Lithium and Pb batteries are charged using the "constant current/constant voltage" method
• Adjustable delta-peak detection sensitivity for NiCd and NiMH batteries
• Adjustable end voltage for charging and discharging for lithium batteries
• Three charging modes for lithium batteries - normal charging, charging with emphasis on balancing and storage charging/discharging
• Three charging modes for lead batteries - for normal lead "car batteries", for lead AGM batteries (batteries with electrodes separated by a separator made of glass fibers impregnated with electrolyte) and for charging lead batteries at low temperatures (-20 °C).
• Charging termination when the set time, temperature (for NiMH/NiCd) or the delivered 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) - S100neo can also function as a standalone tester powered by the battery under test
• Stabilized power supply mode with adjustable voltage and current limitation 2–30 V/0.1–12 A, max. 100W on mains power/max. 200W when powered from an external source
• DC motor run-in mode for optimal mutual adaptation of the carbons and commutator (the motor runs for a selected time at the set voltage and current)
• USB-C port for updating the charger firmware
• Connector for temperature sensor
• Backlit LCD display with a simple and clear menu and displaying parameters during charging/discharging
• A number of warning text messages contribute to safe operation - incorrect input voltage, incorrect connection, unsuitable battery or its condition, incorrect polarity at the output, etc.
• Protection against reverse polarity and short circuit at the output.
• Fan for forced cooling.
• Compact plastic case, small dimensions
• The charger is equipped with an XT60 output connector and a universal connector for JST-XH service connectors allowing direct connection of battery power cables and JST-XH service connectors of 2–6S batteries.

Note: When charging lead-acid batteries, the charger uses a final voltage of 2.40 V/cell (or 2.46 V/cell in the AGM battery program and in the cold charging program) - for this reason it is suitable for charging classic lead-acid batteries (car batteries) and gel batteries with a reversible valve. It is not suitable for charging gas-tight gel batteries, which must not be charged to more than 2.30 V/cell.
