iCharger X8

X8
High powered full featured charger in a tiny package
$193.00

The X6 has a big brother! Don't worry though, it's not much bigger physically - but it does up the charge stakes significantly, with 1100W of potential output and capability to handle packs up to 8S.

The X8 is capable of a full 30A rate on LiPos up to 8S. With a balance current of a full 2A, charges will finish faster than ever. The full color IPS display provides a wealth of information at a glance, using the operating system perfected on the larger Duo iChargers.

The X8 can charge at up to 30A, and it can also discharge at up to 30A! While similar size chargers limit their discharge capabilities, the X8 offers iCharger's trademark support for regenerative discharge, allowing the charger to provide a full 1100W of discharge capability when powered from a suitable battery bank.

Despite its small size and low price, this is still a full featured iCharger, with multi-chemistry support and all the depth of settings you've come to expect, including an improved software interface for recording battery data and upgrading firmware.

Excellent customer support

When I first tried to use the charger I could not get the hang of the thumbwheel and press control. I called Progressive RC and spoke to Chad who enthusiastically and patiently walked me through the menus. Operating the charger makes sense now and is actually quite simple.

I've only tested the charger on the bench so far, so I cannot comment on its reliability. If it proves out over time, then I believe that it and Progressive RC's care of its customers will be a smashingly good combination.

Great device user friendly!

I primarily got the x8 to balance and charge my Li ion 14S 40P 48V setup. It works wonders charging up my packs either individually (1S) or 7S. Very powerful little piece of equipment! Shoutout to progressive rc for the hookup!

icharger x8 from ProgessiveRC

First shipping was fast. They sent it right out. After completing the leads required to use charger with my batteries and power supply it fired right up. Charger will discharge using internal resistance @50 watts, which amps will very by voltage. 2s battery discharge rack from ebay will work for 2s batteries only discharging at 30 amp rate. Over all it does the job, I'm looking forward to trying out the Dx8 to be able to cycle batteries without changing leads.

I have been using my original iCharger X8 for about over two years. It does a great job for setting up new batteries, charging batteries, and reconditioning batteries.
