That was yesterday morning. I left it unplugged until this morning, and attempted a third troubleshooting session, plugging it into a third outlet...and, again, the exact same results occurred. I've been told several times that Hitec chargers are really good, but, after this experience, I've lost all faith with the company, and am now in search of a replacement charger. While I'd really like to go with the Junsi iCharger 308DUO, or 406DUO, both are priced a bit high (especially considering an external power supply is required), thus I am leaning towards AMain's own ProTek 625. "Funny" (not in a good way) thing is, after checking several forum posts, I discovered other people have had this exact same problem with this charger. I'm not going to tell anyone to avoid this, or any other, Hitec charger...but I will state "buy at your own risk".
smart phone control very nice.(include Bluetooth module)
best buy charger. thank you
Update: Revising down to 2 stars. On DC power, this charger is supposed to be able to supply up to 100 watts and 10 amps per channel. My charger hits ~195 degrees Fahrenheit (internal temperature, not battery temperature) and throttles itself back to 1 amp/channel when trying to charge two 2S LiPos at 10 amps, which is about 75 watts per channel. Once it cools off a bit, it will work the amperage back up. This is at around 75 degree ambient temperature. I have done some testing and it seems my charger really only has the thermal capacity to supply about 110-120 total wattage, out of the rated 200, at normal room temperature.
Update: Revising down to 1 star. Same behavior above persists at 70 degrees ambient. It actually drops all the way to 0 amps until the temperature drops to about 170. Would love to have my money back.
Clear layout and display
Awesome built in Bluetooth control that pairs right to your phone
Great charger for both people who just enjoy driving RC vehicles or compedative racers
However this charger is really annoying with the voice telling me it's fully charged loudly 5 times. You can change options but if you unplug it, you have to reset them. You can make a print out for speed settings/charging but the by the time you get through the Bluetooth connection issues you could just have manually done it faster. Great idea but the technology in this charger shows its age and needs a refresh.
