Team Much-More cell master v1

lee82gx · 11-23-2004, 01:21 AM

Is there anyone using this charger right now?
Any reviews??
My LHS just received one, and if I hear some favourable replies I think I'd be the 1st to own it in my area!

I saw they were very popular at the japanese nats recently. They look nice and are reasonably priced as well.

lee. Ur too slow.
I already started using it 2 hours ago.
Seems great.
It charges up the batteries without any problems.
It has more features then actually there is on the website.
Really worth it.
Furthermore, it makes cute noise when you start, end or error occurs during charge.
The 3 phase charging is cool. The manual actually lets you know what the charger is doing so you get a better understand of whats happening while its charging.
Other then that, its smaller then the CDC v6.0B and lighter too.
The display is very clear.

I forget to add something.
The discharger sucks though.
Only manage to discharge at 10 amps.
But i seldom use it anyway.
Can always pop it into my CDC to discharge at 20 amps.
Still a great charger for the price we pay.

AdR|aN:
you are just the guy I'm looking for...
in terms of charging, which one ends with the cell cooler?
I'm finding the CDC a little too hot. As I remember the Pulsar(super linear charge) ends with the cells having less temps.

Is the 10 amps discharge adjustable?

how much are they? USD? it looks like they used the same case from the CTX motor checker

good idea! since its a small case.

lee82gx · 11-23-2004, 05:25 PM

price is about the same as a CDC v6b or a little less than Pulsar.
Retail price here is US$180.

It is amazing charger , I'm very happy to the right choice. I use the CTX mode charge my packs (1st 7amp, 2nd 6amp, 3rd 4.5amp) for racing, otherwise , 4.5amp all the way.

I got mine along with the Powermaster 20A yesterday and it's really cool. Well worth the 145$

Yeah. The 20A Power master is well worth the money.
The size and weight of it is amazing.
Even the box it comes with it is slightly bigger then the box where my CTX CM came out from.

Hebiki · 11-24-2004, 01:53 AM

thanks guys

Eirik · 11-24-2004, 02:54 AM

One feature I really liked with the CTX was the Li-Po and Li-Io charging function!!

The Power Master managed TWO Tire Truers to be used at the same time without any problems at all, that was amazing!!

Purebelmont · 11-24-2004, 03:25 AM

Hello,

I'm Ryan Lee at Muchmore Korea.

I would support if I could give some informations for using Muchmore products.

Thank you,

lee82gx · 11-24-2004, 10:09 PM

Ryan..
What cut-off temperature should we use?
Ambient - 30C

Ryan Lee · 11-24-2004, 11:16 PM

Set Cut off temperature for "Safety"

In Summer,(30C~35C)
Intellect3600, GP3300 52~55deg
Sanyo 3600 40~43
Panasonic Ultra metal 43~45

which works fine but will depend on your location.

Make sure your temp sensor meets on cell's surface.

Hi there

Can someone explane to me what is ment by:

1-8cells ( 1cell upto 5A,8cell upto 1.5A) , 0.1-10A charge, 0.1-10A discharge

the part in orange I don't get (rest is obvious

)

just geussing (give me back me dictionary!!!

)
does it mean you can charge your pack per individual cell (like discharging but then the otherway round)??

lee82gx · 11-25-2004, 12:32 AM

it means
for 1 cell - it can charge/discharge 0-5A
for 8 cell - it can charge/discharge 0-1.5A
for others i assume it can charge/discharge 0-10A

Ryan Lee · 11-25-2004, 01:22 AM

Charge
1cell 0.1~5A
2cell 0.1~6.5A
