About this part

The 200W Spektrum S1200 Smart G2 AC Charger provides easy charging for all modelers, especially using Smart batteries — with Auto Charge simplicity, one-connection balancing, IC3 or IC5 output ports for adapter-free convenience, and more. 

Select IC3 or IC5 Charging Output:

The Spektrum S1200 Smart G2 AC Charger includes IC3 and IC5 output ports for charging your Smart batteries without adapters. Use the slider to select either the IC3 or IC5 port and then charge your battery with up to 200W power. You can charge AND balance Smart G2 batteries with one simple IC3 or IC5 connection — no separate balance lead is required.
Improved User Interface:
To provide the easiest, most helpful, and most hassle-free charging experience, the S1200 G2 AC charger includes an updated user interface with improved menus, icons, and navigation tools. For maximum safety, simplicity, and charging ease, a new Auto Charge feature recognizes Smart battery charging parameters as soon as you connect your pack and begins proper charging automatically.
Improved 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 grips help you hold the charger securely while connecting and removing batteries. USB input and output ports enable you to update charger firmware and to charge secondary devices. Other features include a built-in ON/OFF power switch and low-noise cooling fan.

The charger does not work. I keep getting balance port errors with multiple new smart batteries.

Kregg HallVerified owneron Spektrum RC S1200 G2 AC LiPo Smart Charger (6S/15A/200W)

Great charger , thank you for such a fast turnaround on replacement for broken one

Fernando CruzVerified owneron Spektrum RC S1200 G2 AC LiPo Smart Charger (6S/15A/200W)

Nice technological features. It also looks sturdy and nice. Awesome..

Lance OrsakVerified owneron Spektrum RC S1200 G2 AC LiPo Smart Charger (6S/15A/200W)

This charge is almost TOO easy to operate. It's quick to charge and simple to use. The only draw back is that it has a fairly loud cooling fan but it's completely understandable with the charge rates

Kenneth HiraiVerified owneron Spektrum RC S1200 G2 AC LiPo Smart Charger (6S/15A/200W)

Fantastic charger. When charging a G2 smart battery, it’s plug and play. Super fast balanced charge. When charging a G1 battery with a JST balance connector. It detects the battery condition and quickly charges it in a rapid charge mode - automatically.

What reviewers say

Most reviewers rate the charger highly, describing it as easy to operate, quick to charge, and well built, with plug-and-play use for G2 smart batteries and automatic detection for G1 batteries with JST balance connectors. Reviewers praise its charge, discharge, and storage modes and cell monitoring. One verified owner rated it 1/5, reporting that it does not work and repeatedly shows balance port errors with multiple new smart batteries. One reviewer noted a fairly loud cooling fan. Another has not yet used the unit. Several reviews also mention favourable seller shipping or replacement service. Overall sentiment is strongly positive, but the single low rating describes a functional fault that is not addressed elsewhere.

  • + Easy to operate
  • + Quick, balanced charging
  • + Plug-and-play with G2 smart batteries
  • + Monitors cell condition
  • − Balance port errors reported by one owner
  • − Fairly loud cooling fan
