For the price, I get this option. I just use a single slot slim charger from Fenix that also acts as a power bank if I'm charging via low watt USB. ARE-X1 I think... If I'm charging multiple, I go with a wall plug in option like the Nitecore. This is nice for the price and being able to just put some batteries in there and forget about it...
That MiBOXER C4-12 is much better than the EBL and is only a little bit more.
I love the MiBoxrr C4-12. But it is ~$50 and many people are unrolling to spend more than $30. So I think the $22 EBL has a place.
But hey, you know me, I have several SkyRC MC3000s, and I bought my first when it was still $150. So you’re definitely preaching to the choir with me.
@@cheule C4-12 was actually $35 today on Amazon so I grabbed a second one.
Got this in december and I'm pleased with it, but now I seen an Myboxer C4 which is about 10 euros more expensive, still can return the EBL, kinda in between returning it and keeping it
The MiBoxer C4-12 is a great charger.
Does it require QC3 to charge at 2A total, or can it also take the more standard and widely available USB-C PD?
It works on PD as well as other standards like Apple 2.4A USB-A.
Any idea how accurate the testing actually is?
Will it charge a dead 18650 battery? I don't have a new one to revive the dead ones i have, i barely used them when i bought them, stored for long time now and tried to charge them and won't charge.
If a Li-Ion battery is near 0v, it's formed dendrites in the substrate, and it'll dead short internally--meaning it's dead for good. If the voltage is low, like 1.5v, damage has been done, and most Li-Ion chargers won't recognize it. But if you charge it very slowly on a NiCD charger, like at 300mA, until it reaches 2.5v, then you can try to charge it normally.
Be very carful though, and don't leave it unattended. Poorly treated li-ion cells can rupture and become a fire.
what does CC and CV mean? I can't find anything in the manual.
Constant current vs constant voltage.
@@cheule thanks!
You actually explain some incorrect things about this charger. This charger actually have a 20watt max output of power and a total charge power of 4 amps. Means you can charge 2 cells at 2 amps each or 4 cells at one amp each. But to to do this the charger needs to get power from a power brick that has over 20 watts of power also must have pd(power delivery) capability and also much use a usb c to usb c cable and not a usb a to usb c cable. The input will read 9volts instead of 5 volts. Anytime the input says 5 volts you are in low power mode because your useing a low power usb brick and not useing a high power usb c PD power brick.
Also the batteries charging current has nothing to do with the power input current of the charger
Not only did I test that it would only max out at 2A, but it even says so right in the manual.
If the charger will go over 2A, perhaps they should state so in the manual, and how to achieve that.
@@cheule it can charge 1 lithium cell at 2 amp or 2 cells at 2 amps for both or 3 cells at 1 amp each cell or 4 cells at 1 amp each. But to do this you need to use the charger in the high power mode which need 9 volt inlet power. Your using it on the low power mode with 5 volt inlet power. You need a usbc pd(power delivery) charging brick. You can’t get much power now a days from usb a ports. Usb a even high power usb a tend to max out at only 18watts of power.
Do you know of a charger that you can easily insert 10440 batteries without a lot of manipulation.
Haha! Not really all of mine I have to hold them up a bit.
Can it charge LiFePO4 ? Thanks
Yes. He toggled it to LiFePO4 charging mode at 11:02.
It's got to handle 21700 cells or forget@ 2:21 2:22
It fits unprotected 21700, which honestly is the bulk of what I use. My logic is that any protected 21700 would have built in charging, and I only have a handful of those (read: I don’t use them commonly at all).
@@cheule Gotcha!
A "charging block" is correctly referred to by the name "power supply".
I wanted to disambiguate from a bench power supply.
