Product overview
The SkyRC iMAX B6mini Charger, model SK-100084, is a microprocessor-controlled battery charging and discharging station. It accepts DC 11–18 V input and provides up to 60 W charging power, with charge current adjustable from 0.1 to 6.0 A. Its discharge capability is limited to 5 W and 0.1–2.0 A. Supported battery configurations include 1–6S LiPo, LiFe and LiIon packs, 1–15S NiMH and NiCd packs, and 2–20 V lead-acid batteries. LiHV mode also supports 4.35 V high-voltage LiPo batteries.
The 233 g unit measures 84 × 102 × 29 mm in length, width and height. Its physical layout includes a built-in cooling fan, 2–6S XH balance sockets and a temperature probe socket. An integral lithium equalizer supports battery balancing, while operating modes cover charging, discharging, cycling, storage and re-peak functions. Battery voltage and internal resistance measurement, program storage and terminal voltage control extend its battery management functions. Temperature-triggered termination requires the optional SK-600040 probe, which is excluded from the package.
For connection to a computer, the charger supports PC control and firmware upgrades. ChargeMaster provides pack and cell voltage monitoring, real-time charge graphs and charger control during charging. Smartphone operation on iOS and Android requires the optional SK-600075 WiFi module. The supplied configuration includes the charger, a DC cable with an alligator clip charging connector, an instruction manual and T-plug charging cables terminating in banana, alligator clip, XT60, Futaba and JST connectors. These supplied leads provide the stated connection options for battery charging.
