XTAR VC2SL USB powered 1-2 cell LiIon/NiMH/NiCd battery charger with LCD display
- Charge up to two 10440, 14500, 14650, 16340, 17500, 17670, 18350, 18500, 18650, 18700, 20700*, 21700*, 22650, 25500, 26650, 3.6V/3.7V LiIon batteries.
- *includes protected 20700/21700 batteries
- Charge up to two AAAA, AAA, AA, A, SC, C and D size NiMH/NiCd batteries.
- Charge one of each battery type at the same time thanks to independent charging channels and intelligent auto detect.
Features:
- Input via included USB-C charging cable.
- Three stage charging (TC-CC-CV).
- Independent channels with high definition LCD screen displays time remaining until charge is complete, charging current, battery voltage and capacity.
- Mode button to switch between displays for CAP (charging capacity), CCR (real time current), IR (internal resistance).
- Reverse polarity detection will display as ‘Err’ on the screen.
- LED charge status indicators: GREEN = standby/fully charged; RED = charging/activating/self-examining.
- Internal resistance testing.
- Automatic battery type identification.
- Soft-start current and automatic shut off to avoid damaging batteries.
- 0V low battery activation – most discarded batteries are over-discharged. With 0V activation, the VC2SL can bring them back to life.
- Overheat protection as well as effective heat dissipation design and fire resistant ABS shell construction.
- Reverse polarity protection and short circuit protection.
- Powerbank USB output function, two ways:-
- 1. Powerpath function – When plugged into power (2.1A minimum) & charging batteries USB also has output power.
- NOTE: If input power to the charger is less than 2.1A the charger will charge the batteries first before providing external power via the USB output.
- 2. Portable function – When a charged lithium ion cell (charged more than 3.0V and not a NiMH or NiCD cell) is inserted the VC2SL will act as a powerbank (discharging the battery in channel 1 before channel 2)
- 1. Powerpath function – When plugged into power (2.1A minimum) & charging batteries USB also has output power.
