Description
The SkyRC iMAX B6 Mini is a compact, upgraded evolution of the legendary IMAX B6 charger, delivering 20% more power and charging current in a significantly smaller footprint. Equipped with a high-performance microprocessor, the B6 Mini handles all common battery chemistries—including LiPo, Li-Ion, LiFe, NiCd, NiMH, and Lead-Acid (Pb)—delivering up to 60W of charging power (6.0A max) and 5W of discharging power.
Designed for advanced monitoring and control, the B6 Mini features PC connectivity via the “Charge Master” software, smartphone app compatibility, terminal voltage adjustment, and built-in diagnostic tools like a lithium battery meter and internal resistance tester. Complete with a versatile assortment of charging leads, it provides professional-grade power management in a pocket-sized package.
Note: Product images are for reference only; actual appearance, packaging, or included charging leads may vary slightly based on manufacturing batches.
Key Features
