LKTOP 200W Matrice 4 Series Battery charger

[jaja6009]

Amazon has a new battery charger for the Matrice 4 series.

Amazon.com

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.

Yea krc they do get warm. But as jaja stated above the LKTop 200w charger is awesome. It has an app so you can see the charging cycles and watts going in. Also allows you to monitor the temps as you charge. It has a fan that turns on to cool the charger and charges so fast the batteries dont have time to get too hot. It also depends on the surrounding heat at your location as well. If needed put a small fan on them to keep them cooler. As jaja I also use the power 1000 battery bank. So I use the sdc fast charger for mine as well. And with it I rarely see more then 45 minutes for a full charge. But I never let my batteries get down past 25%.

Does the storage feature on the LKTop work such that it will drain batteries down to 60%, or does it only charge up to 60% when below?

Charges up to 60%. The battery itself will drain down. You can go into your battery settings when that battery is in your drone and hooked up to the controller. Go to battery settings and set it to drain at the rate you desire.
