#101974 - HPI REACTOR 500 CHARGER (US 3 PIN)
Discontinued, replacement part: #160236
The HPI Reactor 500 is the ultimate charging companion for every
RC hobbyist's toolbox!
With universal voltage input, total compatibility with all
available battery types (including Li-Ion, LiPo, LiFE and Pb), fast
charging up to 5 amps, discharging, balancing, cycling, multiple
profiles and microprocessor control, you won't have a need for any
other charger on your pit table.
Power Input: DC 11-18V or auto-switching AC 100-240V
Battery Types Supported: Li-Po, Li-Ion & LiFe (1S-6S), Pb (2V-20V),
NiCd & NiMH (1-15 cells)
Up to 5 amp Charge Rate
Balance Charging
Discharger
LiPo Storage Cycling
Perfect for All RC Hobbyists With the ability to charge a
wide variety of battery types in various sizes and capabilities,
the Reactor 500 is ideal for all car, airplane and boat RC
enthusiasts.
Microprocessor Controlled The optimized microprocessor
controller perfectly controls the charging, balancing and
discharging, and prevents the overcharging of all types of
batteries. The microprocessor disconnects the charge current and
sounds and alarm if there is a malfunction.
LiPo & Li-Ion Charger/Balancer Safe charging of lithium
polymer (LiPo) or Lithium-Ion (Li-Ion) batteries from 1S up to 6S.
Maximum charge voltage of 4.2V/cell for LiPo, 4.1V/cell for Li-Ion;
up to 1C fast charge per cell.
A123/LiFeCharger/Balancer Charge the latest LiFe
batteries (up to 6S) with complete confidence. Maximum charge
voltage of 3.6V/cell up to 4C fast charge per cell.
NiMH & NiCd Battery Charging Charge all current NiMH or
older NiCd cells at up to 5 amps for safe and fast charging, from 1
to 15 cells.
Pb Battery Charging Pb (lead-acid) batteries from
2-20V can be easily charged for engine starters, etc.
Discharger Discharge cells at a safe rate to maximize
capacity and lengthen life. NiMH and NiCd discharging from 0.1 to 1
amp. Individual lithium battery cell discharging for maximum
safety.
Storage Mode Choose this easy storage charge mode for
confident long-term lithium battery storage.
Extra-Safe Charging Safety limits include:
voltage, current, capacity, time and input power. Delta-peak
sensitivity prevents too much voltage going into the battery;
automatic cutoff when the battery reaches maximum capacity; maximum
charge time can be set; lower input voltage level.
Multiple Charging Profiles Simplify charging by
storing up to 5 battery pack profiles for charging different types
of car/plane batteries, transmitter pack, receiver batteries and
more.
Easy Cycling of Battery Packs Revive battery packs
for periodic maintenance or after a long storage. The charger
safely charges the battery to full capacity, then slowly discharges
it to a safe level up to 5 times. Ideal if you don't use your
batteries regularly.
