Description
The SkyRC IMAX B6 V2 is the genuine, advanced microprocessor-controlled smart charger designed to handle a wide variety of battery chemistries including LiPo, Li-Ion, LiFe, NiCd, NiMH, and Lead-Acid (Pb). Delivering up to 60W of charging power (6.0A max) and up to 2.0A discharging power, it features individual cell balancing, storage charge modes, battery cycling, and robust input voltage monitoring to protect field power sources.
Engineered for maximum safety and precision, the B6 V2 includes optimized operating software with auto-current limits, capacity thresholds, temperature sensor support, and data memory storage for up to 5 battery profiles. Offering flexible DC input (11–18V), it provides reliable, everyday power management for hobbyists and workshop benches.
Note: Power supply and external JST-XH charging boards or temperature sensors are not included and must be purchased separately. Product images are for reference only; actual appearance or packaging may vary slightly based on manufacturing batches.
Key Features
- Microprocessor-Controlled Precision: Advanced firmware utilizes delta-peak sensitivity and individual cell balancing to ensure safe, accurate charges without an external balancer.
- Multi-Chemistry Compatibility: Fully supports 1–6S LiPo, Li-ion, and LiFe packs, 1–15S NiCd/NiMH cells, and 2–20V Lead-Acid (Pb) batteries.
- 60W Charging & Discharging: Provides adjustable charge currents from 0.1A to 6.0A and discharge power up to 5W.
- Field Input Voltage Protection: Automatically monitors DC input voltage (11–18V) to prevent draining your automotive battery during field charging sessions.
- 5-Profile Data Storage: Save and recall operational settings for up to five different battery packs for quick, repeatable setup.
- Specialized Lithium Modes: Includes “Fast” charge options to reduce charging time and “Storage” modes to protect cell longevity during long-term storage.
- Comprehensive Safety Suite: Built-in safeguards protect against overcharging, temperature thresholds, processing time limits, and input voltage drops.
Benefits
- Guaranteed Authenticity: Genuine SkyRC hardware featuring a scratch-off verification code for official online authentication at the manufacturer portal.
- Enhanced Battery Lifespan: Precise balancing and dedicated storage-charge modes protect your expensive lithium cells from chemical degradation.
- Portable & Versatile: Compact footprint fits easily into field boxes and runs efficiently off standard 11–18V DC field power sources or bench supplies.
- Safe Field Operation: Input voltage monitoring prevents accidental over-discharge of car batteries when charging trackside.
- Customized Safety Controls: Manually configure upper current limits, temperature cut-offs, and maximum processing times for total peace of mind.
Applications
- RC Car & Truck Maintenance: Essential desktop charger for managing 2S-3S LiPo drive packs and NiMH receiver batteries.
- FPV Drone & Multirotor Flying: Convenient charging hub for powering up smaller practice flight packs between flying sessions.
- RC Aircraft & Helicopter Field Kits: Reliable multi-chemistry charging station for mixed fleets of lithium and NiCd/NiMH packs.
- Workshop Bench Setup: Compact charger for routine battery storage prep, cycling, and general maintenance.
- Lead-Acid Battery Servicing: Safely charge and maintain 2V–20V workshop service batteries and small DC power sources.
