Overlander VSRmini, Operating Manual

Page: 4 / 24

1. Features
Optimised operating software
The VSRmini has an ‘AUTO’ function that sets the current automatically when charging or
discharging, preventing the battery from over-charging, which could lead to a fire or
explosion. These specifications can also be set by the user. The built in balance charge
port makes it convenient for use with Lithium batteries. This charger also comes with XT60
to Deans conversion lead for Deans type batteries.
High-power and high-performance circuit
The max output is 80W. The max charge is 7A. The max discharge current is 1A. It can
charge/discharge NiMH/NiCd battery with up to 15 cells, and Lithium batteries with 6 cells.
The CPU operating program works under such power as the charger is fitted with a highly
efficient cooling system.
Individual voltage balancer for Lithium batteries inside
The charger has a special internal function for Lithium battery voltage balancing. You do
not require an additional balancer to balance the voltage when charging Lithium batteries
(LiPo/LiFe/LiIon).
Balance individual cells
The charger also monitors and balances the individual cells of a Lithium battery pack
during the charging/discharging process. If the voltage of any cell varies abnormally, the
process will be stopped automatically and an error message will appear on the screen.
Accept various types of Lithium battery
This charger can be used with a wide range of batteries with different chemistries (LiPo,
LiHV, LiFe, LiIon, NiMH, NiCd and Pb). Choose the corresponding program, setting the
parameters on the base of the battery type and specifications, before you start to
charge/discharge.
Lithium battery 'Fast' and 'Storage' mode
The “Fast” charge reduces the charging time of Lithium batteries. The “Storage” mode
controls the nominal voltage of the battery to make it suitable for long-term storage.
NiMH/NiCd cyclic charging/discharging
With this charger you can perform 1-4 cycles of charge>discharge or discharge>charge
continually for battery refreshing and balancing.
Data store/load
This charger can store a maximum of 5 different batteries data. These settings can then be
called out at any time and the process can be executed without having to reselect all of the
correct settings.
