Nice find Namuna, this can come in handy with the new R/C car I just bought... It doesn't eat up the batteries, but I wanna play with it all the time! So, do I build this or something? Or buy it... Sorry, don't have much time to read it.

Cool link Namuna! But it doesn't appear to be something available to people like us. From what I gather, it seems more like a company that will license it's designs to companies that want to make battery chargers either for general purpose charging or charging of their own specific devices. Any ideas about battery chargers using this technology? Pulse charging is the safest way to recharge batts since it avoids the heat buildup that can damage batts and it has the benefit of allowing the use of higher charge currents.

The charger that I've got is a pulse charger but it can only charge battery packs with 4-8 cells. Don't suppose you would have an idea where it might be possible to buy one of those pulse chargers? 1-40 cell charging capacity! Wow! And average charge times of 10 minutes!

I work with a guy that's nuts into the whole energy thing. According to him there's new means of energy coming that'll REVOLUTIONIZE the world (keeps talking about Zero Field or Vacuums and such).

He actually contacted the 10Charge company and they say their product is about 12months out (before we start seeing an actual product)...Unless we want to license their product and produce it ourselves.

Then again, it's all smoke and mirrors until an ACTUAL product is released...ImagiNe being able to charge any battery in 10 minutes! That's just SICK.

That would be awesome... I hate even having to wait just 4 hours to charge my batteries! I'll prolly only charge them for like 2 hours, but still. I wish that I could have something like that :rolleyes:

the 1/10th rc guys have chargers they hook up to thier car battery yand charge in like 15min before races

Here is a charger that can charge a 6-7 cell battery in 25 minutes... http://www.hobbypeople.net/gallery/885585.asp

Lord_Nick_D 04-26-2003 07:24 PM

thats a really good price and so is the battery pack under it for $10

xatu 04-27-2003 02:59 AM

I know, that's the charger that is gonna come with my car *when* I buy it. I have to get a job first.

Lord_Nick_D 04-28-2003 03:40 PM

same
I need to get one too

Namuna 04-28-2003 06:24 PM

People, you're NOT getting the idea of the 10Charger charger.

They claim their product will charge ANY capacity battery (like up to 300AMP hours...That's 300,000mAH folks) in 10 to 15 minutes.

These other chargers you guys are linking to don't work the same way.

Lord_Nick_D 04-28-2003 07:08 PM

yes we know bet I doubt many of us have 300 amp batteries the most I'm getting is going to be like 17amps and thats for a robot (gelcell so I charge it with a car charger)
