Trinity I-Balance Management System Categories - Balancer, Chargers, Trinity, Electric, Products - comments closed
Trinity have announced this new I-Balance Li-Po Battery Management System, which offers all-in-one charging, discharging, and balancing for not just LiPo’s but Ni-CD, Ni-MH, Li-Ion, Li-Fe, and even PB (lead acid) batteries. The I-Balance uses a unique individual cell voltage balancer, which means that an external balancer when charging LiPo’s is not required. Other features include delta-peak detection, “fast charge” mode, auto charge current limit, capacity limit, 5-slot data storage/recall, temp monitoring, cycling, LCD display, and touch pad keyboard. You can also manage your packs with a PC through the optional USB interface cable (sold separately).

Much More LiPo Cell Balancer Categories - Balancer, Much More, Electric, Products - comments closed 
Much More have released the LiPo Cell Balancer, designed to regulate the voltages of all cells in a lithium-polymer (LiPo) packs to very tight tolerances during charge and discharge functions. As opposed to non-balanced packs, balanced LiPo’s typically provide higher total voltage, which means more power to the motor system and the packs generally last longer as no individual cell ever becomes over charged, which is a big reason why some LiPo’s perform inadequately. A good balancing system also provides a very safe charging and discharging platform, which is critical when handling LiPo batteries. Cell balancer is designed to balance LiPo packs containing anywhere from 2 to 6 cells which are assembled in series and will keep the voltages of all cells in the pack within 20mV (0.02V) of each other at all times. Much More also provide a number of adaptor cables for use with the majority of packs available currently on the market.
