Read the RC Groups Review of the Bantam e-Station BC8DX.

The all new Bantam e-Station BC8DX sets the standard for features and functionality with a ease of use that is well known for Bantam e-Station lipo balance chargers.

The e-Station BC8DX is a TRUE dual channel lipo balance charger. Each channel is independant of each other, essentially 2 chargers in 1 box that share a huge 128 x 64 backlit LCD display that will not just show you your battery statistics but also you can view the charge and discharge graph's right on the chargers display! Included with the Bantam e-Station BC8DX is the EAC400^* software graphing kit as well as 1 Temperature probe, EAC110.

SPECIFICATIONS:

Lithium battery charging

The Bantam e-Station BC8DX supports the 3 lithium battery types used in RC applications. Lithium Polyer, Lithium Ion, and Lithium Iron Nanophosphate (A123 Systems). Each lithium type has its own low voltage and high voltage parameters and the Bantam e-Station BC8DX has these preprogrammed for you. Just select the lithium type and you are ready to go. The Bantam e-Station BC8DX supports several charging/discharging programs for all lithium battery types including Normal, Balance, Storage, Fast, and Discharge.

Nicad / NIMH battery charging

The Bantam e-Station BC8DX supports both charging, discharging, cycling, and formation charging of Nicad and NIMH batteries, up to 22 cells. The Bantam e-Station BC8DX supports 3 types of Nicad / NIMH charging. Nomal charging, Linear charging, and Reflex charging. Each treat the Nicad / NIMH differently. Batteries with high internal resistance the Bantam e-Station BC8DX has the ability to delat the peak detection from 1 minute up to 15 minutes. The Delta Peak sensativity is also has 3 parameters, Default, Disable, and Delicate. The Delicate setting allows the charger to detect very minor variations in the delta peak voltage which some NIMH batteries may require.

Screen Display While Charging

The Bantam e-Station BC8DX during the battery charge or discharge program will show you the battery information on the LCD display. On display graphing of the battery charg or discharge curves, individual cell voltages, as well as temperature, capacity, time, and mah input and output are all viewable.

The Bantam e-Station BC8DX charger is the most complete functional charger available on the market today. For more information, please review the e-Station BC8DX manual or contact us.
