    SkyRC — IFA 2014 — MC3000 charger-analyzer

    Capacity Cut means that the charger is not detecting the charging ending point, probably because the charging current is a little bit too low, or there are other issues. You can set it a little bit higher, usually 0.5C, which is about 1.5-1.8 A for your batteries. You can disable the Capacity...

    SkyRC — IFA 2014 — MC3000 charger-analyzer

    Re: SkyRC — IFA 2014 / CES 2016 — MC3000 charger-analyzer Mine is like new, and it is also ca. 2018. Do you use/store your unit in a humid place? Any sort of fumes? Have you charged defective batteries that may have leaked? Try using WD40 with a small brush and a paper towel to clean.

    SkyRC — IFA 2014 — MC3000 charger-analyzer

    SkyRC — IFA 2014 — MC3000 charger-analyzer

    Hi all, I am trying to figure out if what I propose is posible. I usually use my SkyRC MC3000 charger to recondition NiMh and LiIon batteries.

    Do you hate it when the batteries rattle?

    I have used succesfully the spirals for binding copies. There are several wire thickness and diameters available and can be easily enlarged for a tight fit. They work great for filling the space in flashlights that accommodate 3xAAA and 18650, the latter being quite lose.
