The iMax B6 Balance Charger is designed with the avid RC enthusiast in mind, and will charge 1 to 6 cell Lipo batteries, 1 to 15 cell NiMh/NiCd batteries and 2 to 20 volt lead acid batteries. The iMax B6 has an LCD display that shows you exactly what's happening with your battery, displaying the charge rate, the amount of electricity (mah) put into the battery, and the voltage for each cell of a Lipo battery that is being balance charged. The charge rate is adjustable from 0.1 amp to a maximum of 5.0 amps, so it will charge your large batteries in a reasonable time. The iMax B6 is fully programmable, has several built-in safety features, and comes with adapter cords for connecting to several types of battery power leads.
To provide power to the charger, simply use the alligator clips to connect to any 11 to 15 volt power supply that provides 10 amps or more, such as an auto battery.
The iMax B6 charger has several programming features that must be set for charging various battery types and sizes. We include our own 'Quick Start Guide' with each charger, along with the standard operating manual supplied by the manufacturer.
Please read and observe all safety precautions provided with this battery charger before use.

These include the following connection types: male T-Plug, JST with female housing, and universal female servo connector for connecting receiver battery packs. The general charging connection allows you to charge 1 to 15 cell NiMh/NiCd and lead acid batteries. You can also charge all 1 to 6 cell Lipo batteries by connecting to this charge lead, but you must also connect your Lipo battery to the appropriate Lipo Balance Connector Port if you wish to Balance Charge your Lipo.
Lipo Balance Connector Ports: There are five balance connector ports that allow you to balance charge 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 cell Lipo batteries. These ports are for the JST/XH balance connectors with 2.5mm pin spacing. This balance connector is used on the following Lipos: 3E Model, Align, BatteryHobby, Common Sense RC version 2, DualSky, Dynam, Electric Power, Esky, EZ Flite, Fully Max, GE Power, Great Planes Electrify, Hextronic, HiModel, Hobby Loong, Horizon E-flite, Horizon Parkzone, Imax, Mega Power, Mystery, Power Up, Protek, RadicalRC, Turborix, Vampower, Venom, Walkera, X-Caliber and Zippy Lipos. The JST/XH connector is also used on Common Sense RC version 1, DN Power, and Tenergy Lipos, but the polarity is the reverse of the others listed above. You would need to reverse the polarity of the balance plug on these Lipos in order to balance charge them on the iMax B6.
