In the case that started all this (Norm's thread) it may well have been user error, but it was an error that was far too easy to make on this charger.Alin10123 said:----[snip)----
This thread was started by Luxluthor in order to find a safe way to charge lithium cells.
And that isn't the only safety issue with this charger – a serious problem with it is that a user will assume it is safe to charge cells in series using this charger. It is NOT safe, and it is misleading to say or imply that it is. There is no safe balancing of cell voltages when cells are charged in series on this charger. The potential for imbalance is what makes it inherently unsafe. It should have been withdrawn from sale at once when this was pointed out.
