About this part

The iSDT Q8 Max DC Lithium Battery Charger is capable of up to 1000W output with charge rates up to 30A, but still small enough to fit in your pocket. With more and more pilots moving to 6S packs, the extra charge rate of the Q8 Max will be a welcome upgrade - capable of 30A charge even on 8S, it could easily charge thirty 6S 1000mAh packs in an hour. And if you've got a pack you need to dispose of, the new "Destroy" mode makes it easier than ever to safely kill an old battery. The IPS screen and touch interface smooths out any interaction, making the Q8 Max the easiest to use ISDT charger yet.

A speedy charge in a compact footprint. I haven´t had a problem with my LiPo big batteries, 6S 6000 mAh. I take a few minutes to go and fly for my EDF Jets. Very good auto-detection for internal resistance and auto-tuning for the best input charge current. Easy to use. Misses: Poor quality of the protective transparent sheet for finger You must warn the battery of the car in the field because the energy demand of this charge is amazing.

The best charger I've ever used and can not beat the price

What reviewers say

Four verified owners rated this charger 5/5 except one 1/5 review. Positive reviewers describe fast charging, automatic cell-count and internal-resistance detection, compact size and easy operation, and several run it with LiPo packs from 6S 5000 to 6000 mAh without problems. One reviewer noted a poor-quality protective transparent sheet and high power demand on the supply, recommending a capable power source. The lowest-rated review reports a ruined LiPo battery and calls the charger poor value, without giving detail on the cause. Reviewers did not comment on long-term durability, and the sample is small.

  • + Fast charging in a compact footprint
  • + Automatic cell count and internal resistance detection
  • + Easy to use
  • + Good value for the price
