Xtar Technology VC2SL Charger for Lithium – Ion Batteries

Description

The Xtar Technology VC2SL charger for lithium-ion rechargeable batteries is a compact, dual-channel smart charger compatible with all popular types of lithium-ion rechargeable batteries (ICR, IMR, INR) and NiMH/NiCd batteries. The device features a special function for activating Li-Ion batteries with chip protection that register a 0V voltage, allowing you to revive a battery you would otherwise have written off. The Xtar VC2SL is powered via a USB-C connector and features a combined analog-digital display that shows the charging current and displays the current charge level and the time remaining until the battery is fully charged, both graphically and as text. The device charges Li-Ion batteries using the optimal algorithm for this type of battery: TC/CC/CV (Trickle Current/Constant Current/Constant Voltage) with a soft start, while NiMH/NiCd batteries are charged with constant current in pulse mode, with voltage and current monitoring. You can switch the charging current between 0.5A and 1.0A. The charger features a standard USB output port to which you can connect an external device (tablet, cell phone, GPS receiver, MP3 player…) and provide it with power (5V/1A) by inserting a charged Li-Ion battery into its left slot. You can also connect an additional USB device to the VC2SL’s output during charging; the charger’s intelligent control system will begin supplying power to the USB port in parallel with the charging of the batteries inserted into it.

Important: The VC2SL package does not include a power adapter. To take full advantage of the device’s capabilities and achieve maximum charging speed, you must use a 5V 2.1A USB adapter. If the adapter cannot provide that much current, some features (daisy-chain charging of batteries and an external device, 1.0A charging) will not work.
