Triton2 is the sequel to ElectriFly’s revolutionary Triton charger. In addition to all existing features found on the original, Triton2
includes several feature upgrades and improvements. Maximum charge current has been increased to 7A. The LCD now
includes a blue backlight for easy viewing even in poorly lit areas. T2 can handle LiPo packs having up to 5 cells wired in series.
The input lead has pre-installed banana plugs, and large alligator clips are included which can be mated directly to the banana
plugs for easy connection to different types of supply terminals. The rotating dial has been modified for easier control. Plus,
the instructions have been completely re-formatted for ease of use. All of this, while maintaining the same great quality and
performance that made Triton famous.
