Amazon has a new battery charger for the Matrice 4 series.
The OEM charger is pretty decent and is pretty fast charging a single battery. It also allows for 90% or 100% charging with the 90% being an okay level for being able to fly the drone and get decent flight times. But long term storage at 90% is not good for your battery' health so I have all of my batteries set to discharge after 1 day.
This new charger is much better. It can parallel charge 3 batteries at the same time and the controller. I have yet to time test it, but the manufacurer claims 1 hour and 50 minutes for all three batteries from 0%.
This charger also has a 60% storage setting which is the main reason I bought it. It also allows you to see each cell's charge so you can further monitor the battery's health and to ensure that this new charger is indeed a balance charger.
I use this new charger as my office setup to charge batteries the night before any flights and then to charge them to storage charge when I know I will not be flying for a while.
In the field I use the OEM charger on a DJI Power 1000 and I just got a single Power 1000 SDC cable that is supposed to be the fastest way to charge a single battery. With these two charging options and 4 batteries, I should be able to charge all of the batteries fast enough so that as I land and swap out a battery, there will always be a charged one ready.
