Key Features
65W of Charging Power
The S65 provides up to 6A of charging current, giving you fast and efficient charging performance while keeping the unit compact and easy to transport.
Wide Battery Compatibility
The charger supports the most popular RC battery technologies:
- LiPo
- LiHV
- LiFe
- Li-Ion
- NiMH
- NiCd
- Pb / Lead-acid
It supports lithium battery packs from 2S to 4S, making it suitable for a wide range of RC applications.
AGM & Cold Charge Modes for Pb Batteries
The S65 includes dedicated charging modes for AGM batteries, as well as a Cold Charge mode designed for charging Pb batteries in low-temperature conditions.
Integrated XT60 Connector
The built-in XT60 battery connector makes connecting compatible batteries quick and convenient. Its integrated design also helps reduce the risk of accidental reverse polarity.
Smart Cooling System
A temperature-controlled, high-speed 7000 rpm sleeve-bearing fan works together with the extruded aluminium heatsink to efficiently dissipate heat and maintain stable operating temperatures.
High-Accuracy Voltage Display
The optimized charger firmware displays battery voltage with three decimal places, providing more precise information during charging and voltage measurement.
Charge & Discharge Functions
The S65 supports both charging and discharging, with dedicated charging algorithms depending on the battery chemistry.
For lithium batteries, it uses CC/CV charging, while NiMH and NiCd batteries use delta-peak detection. Pb batteries are also charged using an appropriate CC/CV charging process.
