Ease of Use: starstarstarstar
Build Quality: starstar
Usefulness: starstarstar
Overall Rating: starstarstar

Pros: +Price is lower than any other charger
+a lot of stuff aditional to the charger

Cons: -in the way it is origionaly build it would destroy itself while real usage by overheating, especialy while discharging because power transistors have no thermal connection to the case
-incorrectvoltage measurement
-incorrect balancing
-wires are to thin
-tepm. plug does not realy fit

Other Thoughts:

Bottomline: Mystery LCD Digital Balance Charger and Discharger (1~6 Cell Lithium / 1~15 Cell NiCD/NiMH)is a cheap charger and when i sag cheap i realy mean cheap!
I guess neither in america then in europe this charger would get on the market, but thats why we are buing in china!
With al litle bit of preparing it an fixing the chinese mistakes its quite good for the price!

Pros: Very sturdy build and nicely painted.
It comes in AL case.
Lot of cables/connectors and thermal probe.
Depends on where are you from, but for me it costs about half price!
Beeping sound can ba switched off! :)

Cons: 1. Transistors.
Well it's not really a con since you can put away the back panel and bend them if it's needed.
I just think that they could be better (more amps)
The price of better transistors is just few cents more so there is no reason for it.
They "should" take 5 amps but I doubt that they will work for very long.
2. If the source is just 0,1V more than 18V the charger will stop working.

Other Thoughts: The transistors should be better so they don't heat up so much.(since they are not properly cooled)
OR
they could be mounted on the back panel with a screw. (like it's normally done)

Bottomline: I didn't tried to charge really strong batteries so I can't talk about it but I'm charging 7,4v 950mAh Lipo with 1A and it works without problems.
(The charger is quite cool at these settings)
I think if you know about electronics you could find a replacement for the transistors.
But for the price it's really good.

Involvement: General (knows how to use it) - Ownership: 1 week to 1 month

Price: starstarstarstar
Ease of Use: starstarstar

Usefulness: starstarstarstarstar
Overall Rating: starstarstarstar

Pros: + Many details of the charging.
+ Solid construction and compact.
+ Very useful
+ Simple menu

Cons: - Thermal sensor not very intuitive to connect. The correct connection is:
- The pin closest to the DC input is WHITE (+5)
- The central pin is RED (Temp)
- The furthest from the DC is BLACK(GND)
- The power transistors are not properly mounted to the case. The paint acts as isolator in the stock unit
- The resistor number 16 looks a little burned and smell like this... not good signal :(

Other Thoughts: Others revius say that you can connect to the pc using the thermal connector, and a correction of the power transistors mount.
Thanks for the help friends!!

Bottomline: It's not perfect but if you want, can improve it to have a long live.

Pros: cheap charger that works i believe in pretty much any battery you would use on r/c's these days... i did quick test on lipo nimh and nicd and worked like a champ... was nice to see the cables that was inclued as well.. even has a cte case with it :)it was smaller trhan i thought too and thats a bonus as well.. my shelf's and drawers are packed as is so this will fit anywhere really.... i did not even read manual yet thats how easy it was to use...

Cons: so far did not find any cons... for the price i dont think i could go and complain about anything anyways

Other Thoughts: nothing much else to say than i like it.. however shipping was terible this time.. i paid ems shipping and it still took a month to get to me... but good things worth waiting for

Bottomline: good charger and does everything my old triton etc hyperion chargers did but for way less money :)
