Overview
With its up to 100W power, new user interface, and ability to fast charge Smart batteries on either the IC3® or IC5® integrated output port, the S100 charger offers a versatile and truly hassle-free charging experience. You can charge virtually any RC battery with the S100 charger. Use it together with Smart batteries, and you'll be amazed by its incredible functionality and performance.
The S100 Smart USB-C Charger makes battery charging the easiest it has ever been. Its Auto Charge feature recognizes your Smart battery's parameters, such as chemistry type and charge rate, and begins safe, correct charging automatically when the charge lead is connected.
Balancing Smart batteries is just as simple. The S100 charger will balance your Smart G2 packs through the same single IC connection used for charging. No separate, confusing balance leads are required.
Powered by an included USB-C cable, the S100 is a convenient charging solution for those new to RC. All you need is a common USB-C power adapter, and you're ready to go.
SELECT IC3® OR IC5® CHARGING OUTPUT
The S100 Smart USB-C Charger includes IC3® and IC5® output ports for charging your standard Smart batteries without adapters. Use the slider to select either the IC3® or IC5® port and then charge your battery with up to 100W power. You can charge AND balance Smart batteries with one simple IC3® or IC5® connection — no separate balance lead is required.
USB-C INPUT POWER INDICATOR
The S100 Smart Charger can be powered by any conventional USB-C cable and USB power supply. The S100 Smart Charger uses USB-C Power Delivery technology to get the most power out of your USB-C Power Supply. During initial power up, the S100 battery level indicator bars will illuminate, indicating the amount of power available from your USB-C power supply. The more wattage from your USB-C, the more powerful your S100 Smart Charger. (USB-C Power Supply not included)
COMPACT CASE DESIGN
The charger's sleek case fits perfectly on your workbench and in your pit or field bag. Its power cord is detachable for easy transport. Rubber bottom grips help the charger stay in place as you connect, charge, and disconnect your RC batteries. Update the charger's firmware through the same USB-C power port on the back of the S100 charger.
