RS16 Professional Balance Charger/Discharger By SKYRC

  SKYRC RacingStar RS16 is a highly intelligent, multi-functional, best performance, microprocessor-based and controlled, charge & discharge station.

   The RS16’s battery management is suitable for all currently used battery types.

   SKYRC with their product RacingStar RS16 gains the edge using the newest technology of chargers and created a handheld and ultra-compact, portable charging system.

   The control via joystick gives the user an intuitive and best operational experience and it makes the unit that good looking, intelligent and unique.

   There are integrated 6-channels balancing circuitry for up to six-cell Lithium- Polymer [Li-Po], Lithium-Ferrum [Li-Fe], and Lithium-Ion [Li-Ion] battery packs. The maximum charge current/power is limited to 16A /180W. 

   Finally, there are 2 DC inputs: one is “Banana type” Plugs and the second is Type: XT60. The “banana Type” Plugs at the bottom are designed for Direct Docking Connect System.

PIC. 1  RS16 Charging Station – Dimensions

  As you can see from the dimensions (PIC. 1), with 92 mm [W]  x 111.4 [L] mm x 50 mm [H],  RS16 is a highly-integrated and very compact charging station. 

PIC. 2  RS16 – Inputs, Outputs, Joystick control, LCG Display unit 

On PIC. 2 are shown the main interface features:

• Information LCD Screen,
• Joystick control HID,
• Battery Socket,
• Input for Temperature sensor control,
• Balance socket and DC [ 11V-18VDC ] Input Socket – Type: XT60  
• The RS16 device, has the same Input socket Type: XT60 for docking connection (See PIC. 3)

PIC. 3 –  RS-16 Bottom View – See the docking input “Banana Type” Connector  

PIC. 4  See the Smart Cooling Fan and a Micro USB Port for firmware update and computer control

PIC. 5 Device has a Smart controlled Fan, allowing a quick extraction of the heat from an internal heatsink

PIC. 6  Docking with eFUEL – 13.8V / 17A  [230W]

Direct Plug DOCKING: 

  The RS16 is ready to Docking – direct plug and connect with the eFuel – 230W, 13.8V DC Switching Power Supply

  To meet every user’s requirements the device has multiple charging modes, depending on used kind of batteries:
