eUNIty Posted October 9, 2019 Share Posted October 9, 2019 I have a 16x coming in. Im looking around for a fast charger and found this on aliexpresshttps://s.click.aliexpress.com/e/d9TUKUfO Kingson offered me a 2.5a charger but opted out. Anyone bought or have experience with this charger? Any other 3a-5a chargers you guys can recommend other than ewheels? Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Fat Unicyclist Posted October 10, 2019 Share Posted October 10, 2019 Anything from Ali-Express needs to be considered with a potential for the unexpected. However King Song make their own "faster" charger... It is 4.0A input and 2.5A output. So not quite as fast, but it is smaller and lighter and can be used with the standard charger without any concern whatsoever. Ask your dealer for details... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have the 1-5A charger from 1radwerkstatt. 84v Gotway with the Lenovo adapter. It is variable with 80/90/100% cutoff as well but it cuts off lower than 80/90. More like 70/80. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks!!! @Mike Sacristan was faster 45 minutes ago, travsformation said: It looks like the same exact one sold be ewheels Thought the same, but I think the eWheels fast charger doesn't stop the charging completely at the end after balancing and stays in trickle charge mode!? That's the reason that the 16X doesn't turn off completely when fully charged and you have to power cycle the wheel to power off completely. It's not a bug, it's a safety feature from King Song to protect the battery from overcharging. 3 hours ago, Mike Sacristan said: It is variable with 80/90/100% cutoff as well but it cuts off lower than 80/90.

With a little luck they might even have some in stock with a temperature controlled fan. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
