sky rc d100 duo

[CHEVY]

Any info on charger does and don'ts with it
Are they any good

[Stilli]

I've had mine for about six months now and love it, great charger, easy to use and great price.
If I were to buy again I may consider going for the D200 for the extra power and included soldering iron.

i've had mine for about 6 weeks and its not given any problems so far, very happy with it :)

I've got the D200 with the soldering iron. That's a great piece of kit. Very heavy and well built. I know a few people who have the D100 and D200 and I've not really herd of any problems with it. Really like the look of the New touch screen duo charger from Absima too.

had mine for a few months, and got half a problem with it. One of the channels works fine, the other charges one of the cells (2s 7.4 lipo) quickly as it should, the other cell can take an hour longer to balance back up.

Swapped leads, lipos etc between the two channels and no difference.

I think it's a problem with particular unit, and no-one else has reported similar. Other than that its a great bit of kit.

if you look at the spec below it says that one channel is 200w and the other is 100w = CH A 0.1-20A / CH B 0.1-10A ore do i misunderstand it?:

I assume you are referring to the D100?

Check that you have both channels set to share the power distribution to 50%. You can adjust this in the settings menu and it sounds like you may have one channel set to high power leaving the other channel set lower. This feature allows you to give priority to one channel over the other, I use mine with both set equally.
