KAVAN C20 Duo balanced charger 2x100W

Dual-channel quick charger with balancers for 1–16cell NiCd/NiMH, 1–6S LiPo/Li-ion/LiFe/LiHV, 2–24V Lead-acid with a current 0.1–10A (max. 2x100W). Discharge 0.1–5A (max. 2x10W). Power input 11–18V/230V. Internal resistance measuring, USB port for firmware update.

The small dual-channel KAVAN C20 Duo is an intelligent AC/DC charger with very simple and straightforward operation. The KAVAN C20 Duo allows you to charge common battery types (NiCd, NiMH, LiPo, LiHV, ULiHV, Li-ion, LiFe, Lead-acid), plus it is equipped with built-in six-channel balancers to ensure safe charging of lithium batteries. The charger has a colour LCD display and a programming wheel and button, which provide you with the possibility of comfortable and fast parameter setting, control and monitoring of the charging process.

In addition to the compact "palm-sized" design and intuitive operation, it is worth a special mention:

• program for new types of high-voltage LiHV batteries with a terminal voltage for charging up to 4.35 V
• the possibility of synchronous operation of both channels for charging two identical batteries
• adjustable charging end voltage for lithium batteries (allows the gentle charging that aviators like, or the brutal overcharging that "car guys" like)

Overview of basic functions and parameters

• Mains power supply 100–240 V/50–60 Hz
• 11–18 V DC power supply (XT60 socket)
• For charging 1–16 NiCd/NiMH cells, 1–6S Li-ion/Li-poly/Li-Fe/LiHV or 2–24V Lead-acid batteries
• Adjustable charging current (0.1–10.0 A) in each channel (max. 100W total with mains power, max. 2x100 W with car battery or powerful stabilised power supply)
• When mains power is applied, it allows channels A and B to be allocated the available power (max. 100 W total) in a 100:0, 50:50, 0:100 ratio
• Charge termination by delta-peak automation for NiCd and NiMH batteries
• Lithium and Lead-acid batteries are charged using the "constant current/constant voltage" method
• Adjustable delta-peak detection sensitivity for NiCd and NiMH batteries
• Adjustable charging end voltage for lithium batteries
• Charging mode allows lithium batteries to be charged with or without a balancer.
• With mains power, the charger can also be used as a stabilised DC power supply of 17.5 V/max. 100 W.
• Easy firmware update via micro USB port
• Backlit colour LCD with a simple and clear menu and parameter display during charging
• Programming wheel/button and button for easy and clear charger setup and control, multilingual menu (including English)
• Several warning messages contribute to safe operation - incorrect input voltage, incorrect wiring, unsuitable battery or its condition, incorrect polarity at the output, etc.
• Forced cooling fan.
• Compact plastic case, small dimensions

The charger is equipped with XT60 output sockets in both channels and universal sockets for JST-XH service connectors, allowing direct connection of battery power cables and JST-XH service connectors of sets 2–6S - if you use sets with XT60 and JST-XH connectors, you do without charging cables and adapters completely. You can use standard Sky RC adapters to connect service connectors from other systems.
