The Turnigy 8150 is a step down from the iCharger, that's for sure. i can't set the lipo voltage for one thing - it has to be 4.20V per cell. that's fine, i'm just using it for balancing, and i've now finished topping up all the cells. one pack had 0.1V imbalance, with one cell at 4.22 and another at 4.12, so i had to leave in balancing for quite a while, 173 minutes to be precise, just to charge 00286 amps to balance the cells out... :lol:
i hooked up the parallel leads to run a discharge at 5s8p, but the Turnigy 8150 sounded like it was going to die, burping and coughing, hacking and choking, so i shut it down.
i'll just have to discharge it on the bike... boohoo.
the cables aren't pretty, but they work. and pretty soon, they'll be snug in the pack.
i'm reconsidering the connector location - might put it in empty space near seat tube (instead of in the front).
