MIBO Duo Racing Charger
Continuing the roll out of its new range of racing accessories, MIBO has released this small dual-channel Duo Racing AC/DC 200W Charger/Discharger. It is an intelligent charger with mains and car battery power supply and very simple and straightforward operation. The MIBO Duo Racing AC/DC 200W Charger/Discharger allows you to charge common battery types, plus it is equipped with built-in six-channel balancers to ensure safe charging of lithium batteries. The charger is equipped with a colour LCD display and a programming wheel and button, which provide you with the possibility of comfortable and fast parameter setting, control and monitoring of the charging process. In addition to the compact “palm-sized” design and intuitive operation, it is worth a special mention that it has a program for new types of high-voltage LiHV batteries with a terminal voltage for charging up to 4.35 V. It offers the possibility of synchronous operation of both channels for charging two identical batteries. Adjustable charging end voltage for lithium batteries allows the gentle charging that aviators like, or the brutal overcharging that “car guys” like.
Overview of Basic Functions and Parameters:
Mains power supply 100–240V/50–60Hz
10–30 VDC power supply (XT60 socket)
For charging 1–16 NiCd/NiMH cells, 1–6S Li-ion/Li-poly/Li-Fe/LiHV or 2–24V Lead-acid batteries
Adjustable charging current (0.1–10.0A) in each channel (max. 100W total with mains power, max. 2x100W with car battery or powerful stabilised power supply)
When mains power is applied, it allows channels A and B to be allocated the available power (max. 100W total) in a 100:0, 50:50, 0:100 ratio
Charge termination by delta-peak automation for NiCd and NiMH batteries
Lithium and Lead-acid batteries are charged using the “constant current/constant voltage” method
Adjustable delta-peak detection sensitivity for NiCd and NiMH batteries
Adjustable charging end voltage for lithium batteries
Charging mode allows charging lithium batteries with or without a balancer.
With mains power, the charger can also be used as a stabilised DC power supply of 17.5V/max. 100W.
Easy firmware update via micro USB port
Backlit colour LCD with a simple and clear menu and parameter display during charging
Programming wheel/button and button for easy and clear charger setup and control, multilingual menu (including English)
Several warning messages contribute to safe operation – incorrect input voltage, incorrect wiring, unsuitable battery or its condition, incorrect polarity at the output, etc.
Forced cooling fan.
Compact plastic case, small dimensions
The charger is equipped with XT60 output sockets in both channels and universal sockets for JST-XH service connectors, allowing direct connection of battery power cables and JST-XH service connectors of sets 2–6S – if you use sets with XT60 and JST-XH connectors, you do without charging cables and adapters completely. You can use standard Sky RC or RC System adapters to connect service connectors from other systems.
