XTAR VC8S 8-Bay Li-ion/Ni-MH Charger

The XTAR VC8S is an intelligent charger for up to eight batteries simultaneously. It supports both Li-Ion and Ni-MH cells and offers precise charging voltage control. Thanks to the fast charging capability of up to 3A per slot, your batteries are charged particularly efficiently. The device features capacity and internal resistance measurement, allowing you to check the condition of your batteries at any time. An intelligent storage mode sets lithium-ion batteries to the optimal storage temperature to prolong their lifespan. The VC8S automatically detects battery types and adjusts the charging parameters accordingly. With versatile protection mechanisms such as overcharge, short-circuit, and reverse-polarity protection, it ensures maximum safety. The easy-to-read display gives you a clear overview of the charging status at any time. It can be operated via PD3.0 or QC3.0, allowing for flexible power supply.  

Features:  

• The charger supports up to eight batteries simultaneously, enabling efficient use.  
• The charging current options range from 0.25A to 3A, allowing for both fast and gentle charging.  
• The intelligent measurement system analyzes capacity and internal resistance to evaluate battery quality.  
• Automatic battery type detection ensures that each cell is charged with the correct parameters.  
• The display shows the charging status and measurement values in real-time for full control.  
• A multi-protection system prevents overcharge, short circuit, and incorrect insertion of batteries.  
• Operation via PD3.0 or QC3.0 allows for flexible power supply up to 15V/3A.
