Love em! Easy to use and most importantly it is much safer. Also love that the batteries will discharge after 72 hours if you don’t use the battery.
I had bought a Spektrum charger and its cooling fans died in the warranty period. Horizon sent me the newer upgraded model as a replacement.
I charge all of my batteries on the spektrum charger now. It's just a great unit.
got a DuraTrax IntelliPeak ICE DC Competition Charger back in 2006 and still use it to this day ! best $100 i ever spent.
Traxxas works the same way except you need to hit the start button and you have to manually put the batteries in storage I have both setups I do like the Spektrum a little bit better I enjoy that either way the charger knows whats plugged in and does the work nothing to change every time you use a different size pack
Spektrum smart charger and batteries here for my Arrma cars.
Smart batteries and charging is definitely the future of rc. I hate having to explain to customers how to charge a battery, quite often with digital chargers I offer to set it up for them. Most chargers now have built in balance boards so most the time you need balance extension leads as well. Gens Ace also have smart batteries now but they are all a bit expensive at present IMHO
My felony came with all the smart tech. I think it’s brilliant. For sure I have a normal 4 way charger too. But use this most often. Even with non smart lipos it works out the charge rate. Use the tech dude to make life easier. 👍🏻
The comments are great, I use a good charger, but I’m always interested in what ppl have to say about others, great video!!!! Not a lot of vids out there about charging either, it’s kinda how I found your channel, looking up charging,chargers,cell tests and other nifty things, thank you my freind great video! Happy RCing my freind
Guy garage Cool 😎 video I can watch to see more from your hobby shop on UA-cam 👍
I been using the spektrum smart charger with all my batteries. Works great. On my different brand batteries the only thing I have to do is hit the start button to start charging with the balance lead plugged of course.
Awesome technology, and works great. However, they’re batteries are subpar unfortunately
Had my spektrum s2200 for over a year.
Works on All my batteries.
What I don't like, the G2 have no balance lead, so in my trucks and boats I can't use a lipo alarm, other than that I love em.
Just got back into Rc. Chose these, just got a 100s, yeah baby. And so easy, does everything for us noobs
I got the S2200 and dont use any other chargers now. Seems to be more accurate with cell voltage reading than my ProTek stuff. The big benefit is the auto discharge. I still charge at a 1C voltage, batteries seem to last forever with light use.
Good info👍💯
Your way behind, brother. When the Losi Gravedigger came out, I went ahead and bought the batteries and dual smart charger. It's been the best charger I've owned. And again, it will charge my other brand batteries. Great choice.
Don't go rolling that eight ball for me 😂🤣
Boom
Only if I had an issue with my regular chargers, but they work fine and know what battery ive pluged in after connecting the balance port. And its 13 years old
That’s cool guy , but I’ve been using the traxxas smart technology for 6years😉 and I had to chuckle when you read the rule in charging and lipo safety😆😆🤙🤙
Did I really read it 😂🤣😂🤣
@@rcguygarage
Ya 😆😆😆🤌
I've had the spectrum S2100 dual charger for 2 yrs now with no issues what so ever. When I'm charging packs to go out and run some rc's I use both of my dual chargers and the spectrum charger is way faster. My other charger is an Ultra Power UP200 duo. Although both chargers work fine, the spectrum will charge 8- 9 packs in the time it takes the ultra power to charge 4 packs. So its twice as fast. 👍🤙💯🤪
Good info👍💯
I wouldn't mind upgrading but problem is I would have to only use with new rc trucks. Not buying any new rigs soon really.
I liked my spektrum charger until I accidentally knocked it off a shelf. I also had bad run with the G2 4S line. 1 puffed out on it first use on a club track. Still angreat system paired with the ESC and dx3 and dx5.
Were you able to get the battery replaced on warranty?
@rcguygarage it was the 4th G2 4S battery after 2 were replaced, so actually 6 batteries. Either bad cells or swelling. Since the charger broke I haven't spent the extra money.
I have a Spectrum 2100 dual charger. I charge all my batteries on it and it works great. As far as Spectrum batteries, I have a few and they work as advertised. I just think I can get more bang for the buck with CHNL, gens ace....ect. The spectrum batteries are a little pricey.
👍
Smart . Surveillance Monitoring Analysis Reporting Technology.I just like Ripping .Think.✌️
😂🤣😂🤣
Like I always say work Smarter not harder lol😂
I like the idea but those chargers just don't have the power. I charge 4 to 8 batteries at once using two ISDT parallel adapters. I will push 40 amps on just one channel or both. Those Smart chargers are good for plug and play but if you're an enthusiast looking to get the most out of your batteries and you have a few, you need the umph to get a wiggle on then you need to go for an iCharger Duo 4010. Epic charger, just epic. If you have 4 x 5000mah charging at once you can push 20 amps and it's still only 1c, you need 40 amps to charge all four at just 2c so as you see, when you want to get a lot done at once and save all the farting about these Smart charges are just not powerful enough.
I think the point of this video I guess from what your relaying is that this is a charger for the hobbyist and maybe not for the enthusiasts? The charger that you're talking about from memory or those types of chargers require an external power supply that supplies 12 volt to the charger that you're charging batteries with that definitely becomes bulky and more pricey and maybe not necessarily what most people going to the hobby store are looking for. I agree with you on the charger that you're talking about but you can't say that somebody isn't serious about a hobby if they're not as enthusiastic as an enthusiast 🤫😜👍💯 or if they're not using a $500 setup for charging batteries.
@@rcguygarage I agree with you. I should clarify. By enthusiast I mean a guy or gal that is into it enough to have a ton of batteries he or she takes out at the same time as they have a lot of vehicles and such. It is true that my setup cost a lot more than this charger but it is all housed in a metal tool box. I made a portable rig for it. I guess you could also read into my comment that for someone I would regard as an enthusiast level with batteries would enjoy more power and maybe if Spektrum made a more powerful unit it would become an option for folks like me, and we are many. I like Spektrum gear they just don't hit the mark on the higher end stuff. It is what it is. I can't image how long it would take to charge 10 4s and 4 6s batteries on even their big charger. You would have to charge them all the day before, it would take so long because even if you used parallel charging it would not be able to push enough amps to charge them at even 1c. I stand by what I say, they just don't put out enough power for someone that is an enthusiast with a ton of batteries and cars. No hate, just fact. I was joining the debate.
Personally, I'm not going to buy anymore Spektrum batteries. I've had three replaced under warranty after experiencing a single cell failure on G1 3S 50C packs. I tried a 4S but the wires came out the front of the hard case instead of the top and didn't fit well in my v2 Kraton or Outcast. Zeee seems the way to go at like a third of the price. I do like my Spektrum S2100 charger though!
And that's what's great about having a choice to do what you want I definitely like what I'm seeing with the charger as well I don't have much experience with the spectrum stuff because obviously my experience was a bad one with the battery that I had but that was I think spectrum original who knows It was quite some time ago 😂🤣
So all of this is cool , but the lipo bags are not fire proof(check videos about this) at all , the only thing they help with Is giving you 2 seconds more to grab the battery before it burns thought the bag . Also I would love to see some one disconnect a battery that goes up from a charger and throw it out side . 99% of the time people won’t it goes up to fast or people are to afraid am with good reason . Ps I fly fpv drones and race this leads to plenty of battery’s catching fire in crashes compared to other hobbies . So I have seen and felt with many lipo fires . I charge in a batsafe box on a bench in my drive way. I sit with in 5 meters of the charger and if I not some thing is off I can pull the charger off the bad safe and just leave the battery to burn out in the box.
this exact thing was said in the video👍 no one said otherwise and to think that isn't smart. I myself have experience with the Samsung Bottle Rocket Phone and slapshotted it off my couch to my kitchen tile floor. sorry no videos of that one 😜 you seem to have a good hold on battery safety👍💯
Mine is coming with a smart battery will see how it goes.
NICE keep us POSTED
The link for the GPS isn't working where can I find it thanks

🤔🤔🤔🤷🏼♂😜👍
"You can't hurt the batteries by fast charging them..." That right there tells me this guy is not someone I would trust talking about anything related to batteries.
That's ALSO like saying " you can't hurt an engine by mashing the pedal to the floor" BUT maybe you're taking what was said out of context? That guy knows some stuff I'm thinking. I believe just like the charger I use that even more so with SPEKTRUM tech that the Smart part knows what the battery can take for power 🤫🤷 but who knows for real in the end 👍😲
Yeah, so these batteries are rated for a 5c charge, right? Why not just set them to 25 amps and let them rip?
@@puddlejumpernva No actually these batteries are set to a 50c charge rate so what we're going to do is plug them into 120 AC power with an extension cord and let it rip 😂🤣 Yes I know you're trying to be a wise guy and it's all right I'm thinking the smart tech between the charger and the battery allows you to pump up or bump up that rate and the battery and or charger gives what's needed??? Who knows I'm just a leaf raker at heart 👍💯👊
@@rcguygarage 380 Watts on a single channel. What could possibly go wrong? Just trust the technology. Trust the science!
@@puddlejumpernva You sound like you're preaching from the podium of a southern church 😂🤣 HALLELUJAH trust and believe That's what they make fire extinguishers for right?
Spectrum / Rectum & screw your Sales pitch , im not buying propietary chargers or batteries .EVER !!
😂🤣 how is it a proprietary charger? That's a good one👍 It's got a balance port on it SO It can charge any battery out there other than maybe a TRAXXAS one 🤪😂🤣
@rcguygarage the problem is if the innocent beginer buys an RTR with spectrum batteries then they MUST use a spectrum charger for the batteries. That's what is meant by proprietary and yes we should not be supporting the company.
So this guy never heard of parallel charging
finger mouths 🤣😂i work on Diesel trucks so i guess i have no clue about anything with that do you?
What do you want to know
I get the concept but to me its just lazy
Okay I get the concept of something else let's see if you do. If you drive a vehicle is it an automatic???? BAM GOT YOU RIGHT THERE DIDN'T I 😜👍💯
Do you still use points ignition or are you coil on or old school HEI???? See what I'm saying? Think about a guy do you have to go to the TV to change your channel anymore or do you sit back on the potato with a remote in your hand? And you had better be laughing your butt off on my comments. 😂🤣
No thanks.
😂🤣
if your a youtuber internet ordering rc junky, but if your a racer at the track hell no.
And if you're a racer you wouldn't be watching this video anyway or even commenting🤫 these chargers are definitely designed for ease of use for the majority of people that are into what's called the RC Hobby for sure 👍💯
@@rcguygarage but your just another hobby shop going belly up. any real hobby shop owner knows if theres no racers and track, its just a short time to sorry were closed, horizon loves to feed on guys like you.
nope im good ive had nothing but issues with them way overpriced lipos never again they are a waste of money in my opinion
Yep I had the same thought but I'm willing to try ROUND 2 this time
I already have a MORE capable dual charger (cost $100 btw), im not gonna buy proprietary junk, thanks
Jesus Christ guy you're all bent out of shape over a simple video I'd hate to see what happens with you and something that was really serious 😂🤣😂🤣
@rcguygarage this is serious, very serious. this is the future of our hobby, and emboldened brands thinking they can cash grav with making proprietary battery systems. And youtubers speaking positively about it looking like dumbasses
