I'm considering running a single 4s lipo battery pack in an upcoming build.

The question is: will my Triton 2 charge these packs (14.8V)?

I'm getting 14.0V input. Can the Triton 2 step up the voltage to the necessary level?

The product literature claims it can charge up to 5s, but doesn't offer any further info. :confused1:

Since these are $200+ dollar packs, I really want to make sure before I plunk down the bread!

Make sure you use a balancer . I have 3 of these chargers and they work well up to 5S. The manual is very detailed. Do you not have a full manual?

You will need to adjust the charger to the voltage of the pack as well enter the pack capacity. Its all done via the round dial on the charger.

Thanks, Doby. All my packs are 2 or 3s. I guess I just needed reassurance.

Do you have a copy of the full manual?

If not, I can scan one tomorrow and e-Mail it to you.

An Equinox balancer works well with that charger.

I do have the manual, thanks. I'm using a Flightpower balancer.
