Voltz 101K - 1000W Synchronous Balancing Charger

VT-101K Voltz 101K - 1000W Synchronous Balancing Charger

Note on balancing:
The Voltz 101K 1000W Synchronous Balancing Charger has an integrated JST-XH balancing port. It is a single, continuous strip. Caution MUST be used when plugging your battery in for balancing. Double-check that you are doing it correctly! Ready Heli and the manufacturer are not responsible for any damages due to the misuse of this balancing port. So, please be careful! If you wish to use batteries that have a different type of balance plug, you may purchase a separately sold balance adapter board.

Note on High Power charging:
When using two Voltz Power Supplies wired in Series, the Voltz 101K is easily capable of charging 6S 5100mAh LiPoly at 30A continuously. That's an 8-10 minute charge time!

*CAUTION*: When charging at high Amperage, heavy gauge wire MUST be used. The included charge cables are not sufficient for anything greater than 15A. You must find 12gauge or larger wire! Failure to use proper wire can result in a fire. Please, use common sense when charging at high current!

Features:
- High Power, high current, high performance power conversion circuit. The Voltz 101K series charger uses advanced Synchronous DC / DC converter technology with an output conversion efficiency that can reach over 90%. This not only saves power and reduces heat build up, but also makes the charger more compact and conveniently mobile.
- Input power with 4mm bullet connectors with butt-welded alligator clips with 4mm bullet connectors and wide input voltage ranges from 4.5V to 38V. The output power can be adjusted to match with the available input power, thus preventing input current overload and protecting the DC source.
- The Voltz 101K charger can be used with three types of Lithium batteries: LiPo, LiIo, and LiFe - and has a fully integrated high power cell balancer.
- Internal temperature sensor and temperature controlled automatic cooling FAN. Controls the internal temperature and provides intelligent protection. When the internal temperature is over 60°C (140°F), the output power is automatically reduced by 25%. If the temperature exceeds 65°C (149°F), the charge cycle is stopped.
- Convenient set of 10 battery profile memories that can be saved and loaded by number.
- 2x16 backlit LCD screen that provides rich information including active charge mode, current, voltage, total charge (mAh), charging time, temperature and more.
- Many charging / discharging settings and cycles to meet a wide range of customer needs. For Lithium batteries: balance charging, normal charging, fast charging, storage, discharging, ext-discharging, charge / discharge cycling, and battery monitoring. For NiCd / NiMH batteries: charging-auto, charging-manual, discharging, charge / discharge cycling, and forming charge. For Pb batteries: charging and discharging.
- Up to 1000W unique regenerative discharge capability. Regenerative discharge takes most of the output battery's energy and puts it back into the input battery, which is not the same with the traditional methods of discharge to deplete that energy in the form of heat across a transistor. Basically, when you discharge your LiPo for storage, you will be re-charging your Lead Acid input battery. The amount of current and voltage that your input battery can accept limits the total amount of power that you can achieve, or 1000W, whichever is lower.
- Unique Lithium battery expanding discharge program. When you connect the external capacity resistance, you can use it as the maximum discharge power capacity - 1200W (@40V/30A)
- Unique Lithium battery Monitor program. When you use other equipment to charge or discharge a Lithium Pack, you can use the Voltz 101K charger to monitor per-cell voltages, battery temperature and process time. If any individual cell appears over-charged or over-discharged, if the pack is too hot or the process has gone on for too long, the Voltz 101K charger will generate an alarm sound and the related information will be shown to the user.
-  Electric motor test mode can be used to run-in brushed electric motors, test motor parameters and performance, check tolerances, etc.
- Foam-cut drive. In this mode, the charger acts as a convenient power supply for a hot wire foam cutter.
- Battery interior resistance measurement. The Voltz 101K charger not only can measure the internal resistance of the battery pack, it can also measure the per-cell internal resistance (only available for Lithium batteries).
- Perfect protection. The Voltz 101K charger has built-in protection for reversed polarity (input or output), low input voltage, battery temperature, charging capacity and time overrun.
- The firmware can be updated via USB port. Voltz chargers also support the "Logview" software to display, plot, and analyze discharge data. See detailed information about Logview at the following website: http://www.logview.info.
