SkyRC iMAX B6 Mini 80W 5A Balance Charger – Smart Digital DC Battery Discharger for LiPo, Li-ion, NiMH

Overview 

Take total control over your rechargeable cells with the SkyRC iMAX B6 Mini 80W Smart Balance Charger & Discharger. Don’t let its ultra-compact aluminum housing fool you—this digital micro-controlled workstation is packing 80W of pure charging power. It features a high-contrast backlit LCD screen and an intuitive four-button interface that lets you program exact charging thresholds, monitor individual cell voltages down to the millivolt, and safety-check internal battery resistance. From racing drone LiPo batteries to industrial NiMH packs, this charger maximizes battery lifespan, performance, and safety.

Key Features 

• Lithium Battery Voltage Balancer: Built-in internal independent lithium battery voltage balancer ensures every single cell in your pack matches perfectly, preventing fires and swelling.

• Upgraded 80W Power Output: Delivers a maximum charging current up to 5.0A, letting you charge large capacity arrays significantly faster than standard 50W legacy modules.

• Pre-set Storage & Fast Charge Modes: “Storage Mode” automatically discharges or charges lithium cells to precisely 3.85V, preventing degradation when batteries are left sitting unused for weeks.

• Rugged Aluminum Shielding: The durable blue alloy casing works as an integrated heatsink, supplemented by an internal cooling fan to manage thermal performance during intensive high-amp discharging.

• Data Logging & PC Connectivity: Features a micro-USB interface that hooks directly into your PC or laptop for micro-level voltage graphing and firmware upgrades.
