Spektrum Smart S1500 DC charger

Coming soon from Spektrum is the Smart S1500 DC 500W DC multi-chemistry charger. Compact enough to carry in a pocket or field bag the charger’s improved, extra-precise scroll wheel interface simplifies setup. When used with Spektrum Smart LiPo batteries having IC3 or IC5 connectors, the device also uploads specific parameters and health data from the battery’s integrated memory chip and displays it on the bright LCD screen for review — giving drivers the information they need to evaluate the packs and make the best charging decisions. For input power the charger uses compatible DC power sources with the included IC3 power cable adapter. The S1500 also has a USB port, a software update port, plus a safety timer and protection against heat, reverse polarity, short circuit, over-current, and low input voltage.
