![]() The fan hasn’t run for me during charging maybe it’s just so cool it doesn’t need to switch on the fan. The fan is temperature controlled and doesn’t turn on until the charger reaches a given temperature. Note that it can also be used as a power supply for brushed motors, a foam cutter (the charger controls the current and voltage to heat up a piece of wire to cut foam) and it has a program to measure the internal resistance of a battery. I tested the charger with several different 4S LiPo’s and all the programs: discharge, charge, balance, and all worked as expected. (learn about the basics of LiPo batteries) I would not recommend doing that as it is easy to forget to change it back to 4.2V before you charge a regular LiPo pack and cause over-charge, which is very dangerous. Unfortunately it is not able to fully charge LiHV batteries to 4.35V per cell, but the LiPo end voltage can be increased to 4.30V in the settings. The charger can charge LiPo, Li Ion, LiFe, NiCD, NiMH and Pb batteries. You don’t have to do it, I just find it more convenient for myself. I replaced the banana plugs on the input with a female XT60. In order to use large LiPo batteries I have as power supply to charge smaller packs in the field, I modified the input connector. On the output side there are balance ports for 2S-6S, and 4mm banana plug connectors. The charger has 16Mb (2MB) flash storage which according to the manual should be enough for 36 hours of data logging. There is an input for external temperature sensor (for monitoring battery temperature during charging) and an USB port for sending data logs to Logview software. You can use lower power power supply, but it means you will be charging at limited current. I’m not sure how efficient this charger is so I would probably go with at least a 400W supply. Keep in mind that an external power supply is needed and should output more than 300W to take full advantage of the charger. The Charsoon Antimatter looks similar to a typical 4-button charger, and it is easy to use and provides more than enough power for your mini quad batteries charging needs. The charger came with cables for charging batteries with XT60, Deans, JST or servo connectors, alligator clamps for field charging which allows field charging from your car battery or a deep cycle battery. ![]() A pair of alligator clamps for connecting to a car battery or similar.A pair of male banana plug to Deans T-plug cable.A pair of male banana plug to JST cable.A pair of male banana plug to female XT60 cable.User manual (in understandable English!).Supported Battery: LiPo / Lilo / LiFe (1-6S) / NiMH / NiCd(1~17S) / Pb(2~24V).Balance Port supports 2S-6S balance lead.Charge Current: 0.05-20.0A Max Charge Power: 300W.Output port: 1S-6S, female banana connector.Input Power: 10-28VDC, 4mm male banana connector.Spec of Charsoon Antimatter 300W LiPo Charger This review is written by oyvinla, member of IntoFPV, edited by Oscar.įurther Reading: Learn how to choose LiPo Charger and PSU.
