Hitec X2 AC Plus Black Edition
The new X2 AC Plus Black Edition AC/DC Dual Balance Charger/Discharger is the latest edition to an ever-growing line of quality chargers from Hitec. While this charger has all the bells and whistles you’ve come to expect from any new high-end unit, this one has some special additions. You’ll first notice its sleek design; everything is easy to access, and the screen is large enough to clearly see all the input information. The unit has twin channels for simultaneous dual battery charging, and it will accept AC or DC input power. Total charge power for both channels is 100 watts for AC and 200 watts for DC power. The charge rate for each station can range from 0.1 to 10.0 amps, while discharge rates go from 0.1 to 2.0 amps per station. This powerhouse can charge 1- to 15-cell NiCd/NiMH batteries and 6-cell LiPo/LiHV/Li-Ion cells—and it can accommodate packs of up to 50,000mAh! All of this coming from a charger that only weighs 2.85 pounds and takes up less than 8 inches of space on your workbench.
