Product overview
The SkyRC Q500neo, product code SK-100232, supports simultaneous charging through four independent channels with intelligent power allocation. It accepts LiPo, LiFe, Li-ion, LiHV, NiMH, NiCd and lead-acid batteries within specified cell-count limits. Charging power is 500 W with AC input and 1000 W with DC input. Channel selection matters: lithium charging reaches 15 A on A/D and 25 A on B/C, while nickel batteries are limited to 10 A and lead-acid batteries to 15 A.
The enclosure measures 146 × 123 × 88 mm and weighs approximately 1206 g, defining its physical footprint for a workbench or charging station. Its 2.8-inch TN color display adjusts through 90°, and a metal scroll-wheel control supports one-handed operation. Load-responsive fan control manages cooling, while the housing has a V0 flame-retardant rating. Built-in protections cover short circuit, excessive temperature, capacity, time, reversed polarity, low voltage and high voltage. Operating conditions are 0–40 °C and 5–75% relative humidity without condensation.
Beyond battery charging, the Q500neo provides two independent digital DC supply outputs with adjustable voltage and current, plus 100 W PD 3.0 charging. Regenerative discharge transfers unused battery energy between channels A and B at a stated 500 W; ordinary discharge ratings are 10 W through the main port and up to 24 W through the balance port. Bluetooth app connectivity adds charging-curve, capacity, voltage and power monitoring, together with OTA updates. These functions make it useful for battery servicing and bench power tasks alongside RC operations.
