ISDT 608PD Lipo Battery Charger Discharger, PD 140W DC 240W/10A Dual Mode Input, Smart RC Battery Balance Charger for 2~6S Lithium LiHv LiIon Life NiMH Ni-Cd/Pb,with LCD Display,Phone Control

I actually love this charger more than my bigger one and it works off type c

Good charger and smart, pretty fast charger also, amazing for charging on the good and small and compact.

Failed all of the sudden while charging a 6s 6000mah battery. It beeped about low input voltage from another 6s pack that was fully charged rather quickly into the charge cycle, which surprised me. I thought my battery had gone bad and was about to puff or something. I pulled my battery off and now it wont accept input power to charge, usb c pd power output no longer works and the input xt60 on top does nothing. Powering it with a usb c power brick causes the screen to flash for a moment every 2s or so. It works as a cell checker still i guess.. bit disappointed after only 40 days of owning.

I didn't really need another ISDT charger, but I did at some point try to find a nice PD laptop charger for my car and eventually gave up. The fact that this charger is very compact and can do PD in both directions sold me on this. Planning to keep it in my car and use it as a swiss army knife.It all started out on the wrong foot in my initial tests. A USB-C PD cable from Apple that usually works well just couldn't negotiate a PD session between my Lenovo laptop and this charger. Didn't charge the laptop at all, not even at slow speeds. But then, three other USB-C cables I've tried after that worked just fine.Which bring us to the next random stroke of luck. I power my LiPo chargers from repurposed 19V laptop bricks and 608PD just doesn't seem to want to charge anything at 19V PD when connected to a ~19V power source (that includes my 6s Li-ion packs). It probably makes sense in hindsight given what I understand about how buck/boost converters work. But that's another limitation that wasn't spelled out, so I ended up spending my time to troubleshoot.In the end it did charge my laptop at 65W from a 12V source, so it should work just fine in my car with the right USB-C cable, but definitely not without limitations (still bitter it can only go 5V/3A when doing PD from a 6s pack)

Chargers fast//worked just like i needed! The app is clutch esp not having any other tools to read a battery’s health. super convenient and small - also having the usbc option is nice. would buy again.

The media could not be loaded. This charger does a lot of things right, but it has some huge (at least for me) issues.The bad:- the PB / lead-acid battery mode, when charging ends, doesn't decrease the voltage. Ideally, I would like to charge the PB battery to 14.6V and then keep it at 13.5V (just like many other PB chargers / maintainers do). This one will keep it at whatever voltage you set at the beginning of the charging, so if you want to use it as battery tender, it would require you to manually set the charging to 13.5V after the charging is completed.- it always limits the input power to 60W for both of my PD chargers despite claiming to be 140W compatible. If I use the PD trigger board (you know, this one that you connect to your charger and "fools" it into delivering other voltages than 5V), and connect to XT input port, my PD charger doesn't have issues delivering 140W of power. (my PD charger will cut power at ~155W).- THE BIGGEST ISSUE IS HOW IT BEHAVES NEAR END OF CHARGE. It will overvoltage the cells. If the cell is almost charged, it will cut power, voltage will drop to something like 4.18V and then it will start charging again, causing overvoltage, and then it cuts power again, and so on. It can't output steady 4.2V if there's very little current draw. DON'T USE FOR VERY SMALL BATTERIES - I tried charging a 1P 300mAh tiny drone battery and the voltage rose to 4.5V even if the limit was set to 4.2V... DANGEROUS!- if I disconnect the battery, output will rise to 5.3V- it doesn't seem to ever terminate charging... which wouldn't be too bad if it could output steadyThe good:- easy to setup profiles- it will allow to charge without balance leads, useful if trying to charge pack that doesn't have balance leads exposed, like packs that come with built-in BMS / protection- can pick end voltage, so there's no "storage" option but can set charge voltage to 3.7 or 3.8V per cell and let it cook- if you have at least 2P pack and connect just balance lead, it will power on and tell you each cell's voltage just like those tiny testers, really nice- if you connect main battery power first, it can act as power bank and charge your device taking energy from the battery you connected- no storage / discharge option, but power bank mode allows to set voltage limit, so you could potentially charge your phone and discharge the connected pack at the same timeI think those are more software issues than hardware, and it supports bluetooth connection so maybe there's a way to fix it / update, but at this point of time, I can't trust this charger and I will be returning it. Too bad because I really like the UI. If it could auto-detect how many cells there are depending on the

If I hadn’t thrown away the packaging I would had returned it. I bought this for the convenience of charging my whoop batteries using USB C PD as the power source. It charges fine but it lacks a built in storage charge mode. I found a way around it by using the app to set a manual charge voltage, this clearly means that device can support storage charging. The manual charge voltage can’t be saved to the device, in fact you can’t even edit the charge programs from the app. If they add storage charge and the ability to edit the charge programs from the app then this would be a 5 star product but until they add those software elements I would look elsewhere.

This thing is an amazing little field charger! It can handle any of my batteries that are anywhere from 2s 1000mah all the way up to my 6s 5200mah and it doesn't even blink for the price this is a solid buy to toss in your bag.
