iSDT 608PD charger

The ISDT 608PD 240 W miniature charger is a powerful smart charger powered by a car battery, stabilised power supply or USB-C power supply with very simple and intuitive operation. The 608PD can charge common cell types (NiMH, Li-Po, LiHV/ULiHV, LiFe, Pb), plus it features built-in six-channel balancers to ensure safe charging of lithium batteries. The charger is equipped with a colour LCD and three programming buttons, which offer you more comfortable and straightforward parameter setting, control and monitoring of the charging process.

In addition to the “palm-size” design with high performance and intuitive operation, worth a special mention is:

• Program for new high-voltage lithium batteries LiHV with an output voltage for charging of up to 4.35 V and ULiHV with an output voltage for charging of up to 4.45 V (voltage adjustable from 4.25–4.50 V)
• Adjustable end voltage for charging lithium batteries (allows more gentle charging that pilots like, or brutal over-charging suitable for car guys)
• Adjustable end voltage for lead-acid battery charging (2.00–2.45 V; allows charging of all types of lead-acid batteries)
• Bluetooth in the ISD Link mobile app (Android and iOS): ability to set up, start and charge tracking
• Can be used as a USB-C/PD2.0/3.0/3.1 charger for smartphones, tablets and similar devices

Basic features and parameters overview:

• Power supply 10–30 V DC (XT60 port) or USB-C (5–28 V)
• For charging 1–16 NiMH cells, 1–6 Li-Po/Li-Fe/LiHV cells or 2–24 V lead-acid batteries
• Adjustable charging current 0.5–10.0 A (max. 240 W) – the power supply must have a voltage of at least 24 V to fully utilize the power of the charger
• Charging termination via delta-peak automation for NiMH batteries
• Lithium and lead-acid batteries are charged via the “constant current/constant voltage” (CCCV) method
• Adjustable delta-peak detection sensitivity for NiMH batteries
• Adjustable end voltage for lithium and lead-acid battery charging
• The charger can work as a USB-C/PD2.0/PD3.0/PD3.1 charger for smartphones, tablets and similar devices when powered by a 5–30V model battery pack (with adjustable voltage limit to prevent deep discharge)
• Simple firmware update via USB-C port
• Back-lit LCD with a clear and simple menu and parameter monitoring during charging
• Programming buttons for simple setting and operation of the charger
• Safety is ensured by several warnings (incorrect battery type/voltage, drop in supply voltage, etc.)
• Fan for forced cooling
• Compact plastic case, very small dimensions

The charger is equipped with an XT60 socket and universal JST-XH socket for service connectors, allowing direct connection of power cables and JST-XH service connectors of 2–6S packs. If you are using packs with XT60 and JST-XH connectors, you don’t need any charging cables or adapters. To connect service cables of a different system you can use standard adapters Sky RC or KAVAN.
