Bantam E-Station BC6-10 Power Max Balancing Charger - LiPo and NiMH

This is only a few months old and is in perfect condition.

I'am selling as i have 2 and now only require 1, these are an excellent charge for lipo batteries, mine are never 0.01v apart even when they have just come out of the car.

It comes complete with all cables to charge and balance all RC car batteries on the market today, boxed with instructions.

Please note: This is the original version from Bantam - not a cheap "clone". Full back-up service from the UK distributor is available.

The Bantam BC6-10 is a new breed of charger designed primarily for LiPo users utilising up to 6S 22.2v battery packs, which require a charger that is capable of charging high capacity packs without the wattage deficit that most field chargers experience. The BC610 offers a whooping 200 watts output that would allow a 6S 9000mAh LiPo to be charged at 1C or two 6S 4500mAh to be charged simultaneously in parallel at 1C. The BC6-10 requires a sturdy 12 to 15v input, and we would strongly recommend that you consider purchasing a MAAS 40 AMP (600W) power supply if you intend to charge higher voltage large capacity packs.

The Bantam BC610 features:

- Operating software
Every operating program in the unit is controlled with mutual links and communications to prevent every possible error, so it introduces the maximum safety, such as input voltage warning, reverse polarity protection and Lithium cell-count input error warning.

- High-power and high-performance circuit
BC6-10 employs the circuit that has maximum output power of 200Watts. As a result, it can charge or discharge up to 18 cells of NiCd/NiMH and 6 series of Lithium batteries with maximum current of 10A. Furthermore, the cooling system is so efficient that can hold such a power without any trouble of running the circuit or the operating program.

- Individual voltage balancer for Lithium batteries inside
BC6-10 has an individual-cell-voltage balancer inside. So it does not need any balancer separately when charging Lithium batteries (LiIo/LiPo/LiFe) for cell voltage balancing.

** When the 'Balance charge' mode being performed, the balancing adapter should be connected to the balancing tab of battery pack, as well as the charger's charging lead should be connected to the output of battery pack.
And also, please pay attention to the polarity of the battery pack's output which goes to the charger's output. If it is reversed, the short-circuit can be happened on the battery pack.

- Accept various types of Lithium battery

BC6 can accept three types of Lithium batteries - LiIo, LiPo and LiFe. They have different characteristics by their chemistry. You can select any one of them that you are going to process before the job.

- Lithium battery 'Fast' and 'Storage' mode
You can charge Lithium battery for special purposes. 'Fast' charge reduces the charging time of Lithium battery and 'Storage mode controls the final voltage of the battery to be suit for long time storage.

- Data store/load
For users convenience it can store maximum 10 data of different batteries. You can establish the data contains program setting of the battery to charge or discharge continually. These data can be called out at any time you need and the process can be executed without program setting.

- Cyclic charging/discharging
Perform 1 to 5 cycles of charge>discharge or discharge>charge continually for battery refreshing and balancing.

- PC based analysis using USB communication
For technical expert, BC6-10 offers PC based program can analysis the characteristic of the battery by USB port. It shows a graph of voltage, current, capacity and temperature curves. It also shows the individual voltage of each cell in the Lithium battery pack.

- Back-light LCD screen
You can adjust the brightness of LCD display

- Robust outer aluminium case
High-quality aluminium case is durable and very efficient to cool out the internal heat
