LiPo Generic Small Balanced
Special LiPo preset designed for charging small batteries but still using balance
connector. This preset is recommended for battery sizes as small as 10 mAh and up to
500 mAh. Preset requires manual charge rate settings of between 10 and 500 mA in 5
mA increments by default. Optimization is for the most accurate charging with
termination settings of C/20 and max of 30 min timeout for C.V. mode. This preset
requires that every cell in the battery is charged to exactly 100%. If using high C rate
discharge batteries (25C and higher), Fuel Gauge readout may not be accurate. Default
charge rate setting is 350 mA. Other defaults: discharge rate setting is 500 mA,
discharge voltage 3.3V/cell.
LiPo 1s/2s Small Non Balanced
Special LiPo preset designed for charging small Park Flier type batteries that are not
equipped with balance connectors. Be cautious when charging any LiPo battery non-
balanced. Dual PowerLab 8x2 is not capable of detecting imbalance between cells.
Never charge unattended using this preset. This preset is recommended for battery
sizes as small as 10 mAh and up to 2000 mAh. Preset requires manual charge rate
settings of between 10 and 2A in 5 mA increments by default. Fuel Table is optimized for
generic LiPo batteries from C discharge ratings up to 20C. Optimization is for faster
charging with termination settings of C/10 and max of 15 min timeout for C.V. mode. This
preset does not require that every cell in the battery is charged to exactly 100%. If using
high C rate dis-charge batteries (25C and higher), Fuel Gauge readout may not be
accurate. Default charge rate setting is 350 mA. Other defaults: discharge rate setting is
500 mA, dis-charge voltage 3.3V/cell.
LiPo All Brands Storage Charge
Special LiPo preset (any capacity) designed to storage charge or discharge a battery up
or down to 3.86V per cell. DPL will automatically determine whether a charge or
discharge process is required. This preset will balance charge to storage level, but
terminates discharge on the lowest cell in the pack. Upon discharge termination, DPL
does incorporate CC/CV discharge algorithms for precise terminating voltage. Manual
charge rate setting is required when using this preset and ranges from 10 mA to 10A.
Charge and discharge termination voltage can be independently adjusted to further
assure termination accuracy. Fuel Table is optimized for generic LiPo batteries from C
discharge ratings up to 20C. Optimization is for super-faster charging with termination
settings of C/5 and max of 15 min timeout for C.V. mode. This preset does not require
that every cell in the battery is charged to exactly 100%. If using high C rate discharge
batteries (25C and higher), Fuel Gauge readout may not be accurate. Default charge
rate setting is 2A. Other defaults: discharge rate setting is 10A, charge voltage
3.86V/cell, dis-charge voltage 3.83V/cell.
