SKY RC B6 Nex charger 200W

The B6 Nex 200W miniature charger was designed to offer a smart, pocket-sized charger with both AC and DC power sources, high performance, and very simple and intuitive operation. The B6 Nex allows you to charge and discharge common battery types (NiCd, NiMH, LiPo, LiHV, Li-ion, LiFe, Pb); it also features a built-in six-channel balancer that ensures extremely safe charging of lithium batteries. The charger is equipped with a Bluetooth 5.0 interface, which, when connected to the SkyCharger app installed on your smartphone (iOS and Android), allows you to conveniently and clearly configure parameters, control, and monitor the charging/discharging process.

In addition to its extremely compact, “palm-sized” design and intuitive three-button control, the following features are worth special mention:

• a program for new types of “high-voltage” LiHV lithium batteries with a charging cut-off voltage of up to 4.35 V
• Built-in Bluetooth 5.0 allows you to control the charger remotely from your smartphone (running iOS or Android) using the SkyCharger app
• The SkyCharger mobile app features “SCAN TO GO,” which lets you create a unique QR code for each of your batteries containing all the charging information—then all you have to do is scan the QR code sticker attached to the battery, and the charger will start charging without any additional setup
• Adjustable cut-off voltages for charging and discharging lithium batteries (allows for gentler charging, preferred by pilots, or, conversely, aggressive overcharging, favored by “car model enthusiasts”)—with the SkyCharger app

Overview of Basic Functions and Parameters

• Mains power supply 100–240 V/50–60 Hz
• Input supply voltage 10–30 V DC
• For charging and discharging 1–15 NiCd/NiMH cells, 1–6 Li-ion/Li-Po/Li-Fe/LiHV cells, or 2–20 V lead-acid batteries
• Adjustable charging current (0.1 A – 10.0 A)
• Adjustable discharge current (0.1 A – 2.0 A)
• Max. charging power: 200 W when powered by a DC source (car battery, stabilized AC power supply of at least 250 W—to fully utilize the charger’s power, the power supply must have a voltage of at least 24 V) or max. 50 W when powered by the built-in AC power supply
• Max. discharge power: 10 W
• Charging termination via delta-peak automatic control for NiCd and NiMH batteries
• Lithium and Pb batteries are charged using the “constant current/constant voltage” method
• Adjustable delta-peak detection sensitivity for NiCd and NiMH batteries—with the SkyCharger app
• Adjustable end-of-charge and end-of-discharge voltages for lithium batteries—with the SkyCharger app
• Repeated charge/discharge or discharge/charge cycles for NiCd and NiMH batteries, up to 5 cycles
• Four charging modes for lithium batteries—normal charging, fast charging, charging with balancer, and storage charging/discharging
• Charging termination when the set time or charge level is exceeded – with the SkyCharger app
• Memory for any number of charge/discharge programs – with the SkyCharger app
• Built-in Bluetooth 5.0 wireless interface for remote control of the charger from your smartphone (running iOS 9.0 or higher, or Android 8.0 or higher) using the SkyCharger app
• The SkyCharger mobile app features “SCAN TO GO,” which allows you to create a unique QR code for each of your batteries containing all the necessary charging information
• Backlit LCD display with a simple and intuitive menu and real-time parameter display during charging/discharging
• A range of warning messages ensures safe operation—incorrect input voltage, improper connection, unsuitable battery or battery condition, incorrect output polarity, etc.
• Protection against reverse polarity and output short circuits.
• Fan for forced cooling.
• Compact plastic enclosure, very small dimensions

The charger is equipped with an XT60 output connector and a universal balancer socket for JST-XH service connectors, allowing you to directly connect battery power cables and JST-XH service connectors for 2–6S packs—if you use packs with XT60 and JST-XH connectors, you won’t need any charging cables or adapters at all. To connect service connectors from other systems, you can use standard Sky RC or RC System adapters.

Note: When charging lead-acid batteries, the charger uses a terminal voltage of 2.40 V/cell—for this reason, it is suitable for charging conventional lead-acid batteries (car batteries) and gel batteries with a reversible valve. It is not suitable for charging gas-tight gel batteries, which must not be charged to more than 2.30 V per cell.

The charger set includes: B6 Nex charger, power cord, and instructions.
