External Discharge Function - please see Task Setting section of the manual (pg 10, or PDF pg 13), available on Hobbymate website download page. With the AC cord unplugged, plug the battery you want to discharge into the DC input XT60 connector (on back of charger). Place a load resistance of 1.5 - 2.5 ohms on the output XT60 connector of either channel 1 or 2. Other resistances can be used but be sure it is compatible with the power you need it to dissipate. Also be careful as resistive loads can get very hot. You can adjust the current and therefore the power in the task settings. Better to start off with lower current and increase it as you gain confidence in the load capability. I’ve done testing with a 150w 20v halogen light bulb from a film projector. I do not run it at 150 watts as it does not have any airflow in this application. The rest of the process is fairly straightforward.
hi on discharge mode is it discharge all the cells? until every cell is get to the low volt? or it stop to discharge when the first cell get to lowest volt?
So the external discharge function cannot be used to recharge a battery (used as discharge load) ? That is a negative versus the icharger X6 which can use externak discharge to recharge the source battery.
It does not have a specific "regenerative discharge" function. However as a workaround, you can use the battery you want to discharge as the power source and recharge another battery. Be sure to set the minimum input voltage in the system menu as your discharge lower voltage limit.
Does anybody have the firmware v1.0.29 of Hobbymate for me? I have an Hota D6 with the Hota version of this firmware but want to have the fan off on standby. Unfortunately the Hobbymate website has been changed and all the downloads are gone.
hello Hobbymate RC Hobby, just one question about these D6 Duo Pro (amazing charger ;) ), is trickle charge ON safe with lipo battery? (thanks in advance)
Honestly nothing can compare to the value of this charger for the price, truely amazing!

I need this high-tech charger 😍 Look likes the best actually on the market ! Congrats Hobbymate for making this beast
Awesome looking charger!! Great review.
Great review and demonstration.
Love it! That is bad ass. Great video and info. So much better then my current charger.
Nice, good luck everyone.
Super charger love the split screen feature
Good stuff, I need me one of those!
Very nice features, great charger
Looks amazing! I could actually fit that in with my gear...
Good job for a good charger
Awesome charger! I want one! 🍀 🍀 🍀
Sick charger!!
I would love one if these
Super charger⚡
Great review thanks
Very cool
Ottimo caricatore
Very good charger
nice win win
Explained very well and this is a very nice charger. What I didn't hear about was if it can charge HV lipos ?? If soo it's a winner in my book
interesting product
i want this!!
Has this charger ext. temp sensor or connectors for ext. temp sensor?
Please make a video showing the "Discharge Ext." feature of this device.
Hey Jason, just made a general reply explaining the feature.
why do it not remember after cell calibrate? when you power off/on it loses all the cells calibration.
Hi,This charger works for mavic 2 battery.
I have wanted this charger since the first time i saw it. I would looove to win one😁

You can download it from HobbymateHobby.com website. Link at the bottom of the page for Product Technical Documents and Manuals.
Need another charger.
What the hell is centigrade? Lol
Its Celcius, how accurate was this video?
