Thanks. This video was instrumental in me buying one. I wanted a desktop power supply, servo tester etc. and this was ideal. It's paired with an old Dell laptop adapter which is good for about 4.5A which is more than enough for everything I might need. The long lead on the adapter makes it easy to reach into large models on a separate stand. My main charging setup is used outside just in case but I admit I do use this M7 for the odd charge up of radio and goggles.
Because charging NiMh batteries is not straight forward I use a dedicated charger and not used my ToolkitRC chargers. Here is a link where you can check out the dos and don’ts for charging this type of batteries. www.electronics-notes.com/articles/electronic_components/battery-technology/nimh-nickel-metal-hydride-charging.php
Hi, you could charge this large capacity battery at 5amp if your charger has the capacity to do so but I would only charge that battery at 2 amp. 1500 mAh I would use 1.5 amp and 500 mAh at .5 amp etc but check the charging recommendations included with your battery.

Thanks for making and sharing Bill 🤝
Can you measure the battery IR, voltage etc powered by itself? (only connecting the output xt60 port?)
You can check the individual cell voltages and the overall voltage of the pack but not the IR.
Can I use this to charge 2x 2500mah Duracell nimh batteries?
What charging current and nixx peak I need to set?

Hi! Would a 35watt wall power supply be enough to work with M7 charger?
I think the power supply may be under powered and only allow a very low charge rate if at all.
@@the-happy-RC-flyerYes i just need to charge 2s 7.4v lipo battery with 450mah each. 3 batteries in parallel.
I am not a fan of parallel charging would suggest charging the batteries individually and of course do not leave batteries charging unattended.
May this charge without balancing like as lion or life4 ?
As far as I understand please consult the chargers manual.
Hi, i have a 5000mAh 3S 11.1V LiPo battery, which rating adapter should i use?

@@the-happy-RC-flyer thank you so much for the reply
You are very welcome.
