Amazing charger that is incredibly simple to use. ease of use is like no other, it has to be one of the most powerful chargers that can run off AC. Also, the capability to use DC is awesome.
Really good charger and it's not as finicky as other chargers especially Traxxas.
Had it for a couple months now and been quite happy with it. Got it because of the 1.5a balance current, realtime resistance meter, and 30w discharge. Charges 2s race packs at the track quickly and quietly. For a casual racer, beats hauling around a power supply, charger, and stand around.
Fast charge rates dual port this charge is a winner. I can run all day with only 3 packs in rotation. @slashyourfaceoff
4 out of 5 stars because nothing is perfect. If you don't have the money for the K4 I suggest going with a K2. So far I can't get either to work with ISDT go. It only works with ISDT link.
Reviewers generally rate the iSDT K4 Smart AC/DC charger highly, with five of six reviews at 5/5 and one at 4/5. Praise centres on ease of use, fast charging, dual-port operation, DC and AC capability, quality construction, Bluetooth, and variable fan speed. One reviewer, a casual racer, values the balance current, real-time resistance meter, and 30W discharge for charging 2S race packs at the track. One reviewer says the charger is less finicky than Traxxas chargers. The one recurring complaint is compatibility: a 4/5 reviewer could not get the K4 or K2 to work with the ISDT Go and said it only works with ISDT Link. Reviews do not mention the AC/DC ratings in detail beyond general praise.
