Kavan C100 Duo charger #KAV34.1100
The small 2-channel charger KAVAN C100 Duo 2x500W was developed to offer an intelligent charger with high performance, mains supply as well as supply from a car battery and very simple and clear operation. With C100 Duo you can charge and discharge common cell types (NiCd, NiMH, LiPo, LiHV, ULiHV, Li-Ion, LiFe, Pb). In addition, it is equipped with built-in 6-channel balancers that ensure safe charging of lithium batteries. The charger is equipped with an LCD color display and programming buttons, with which you can set the parameters conveniently and very clearly, and control and monitor charging and discharging. The menu languages also include German and English
In addition to the compact, palm-sized design and intuitive operation, the following are worth mentioning:
Program for new types of "high voltage" lithium LiHV batteries with an end voltage for charging up to 4.35V and ULiHV with an end voltage of 4.45V
Powerful balancer with a current of up to 1.5 A
Possibility of synchronous operation of both channels for charging two identical batteries or parallel charging of one battery with power up to 800 W
Adjustable charge and discharge end voltage for lithium battery packs (allows gentler charging, which pilots like, or vice versa, heavy overcharging, which car enthusiasts enjoy)
Adjustable end-of-charge voltage for lead-acid batteries (1.90-2.45 V, allows charging of all types of lead-acid batteries)
Overview of basic functions and parameters
Mains supply 100-240 V/50-60 Hz
DC power supply 10-30 V (XT60 socket)
For charging and discharging 1 - 16 NiCd/NiMH cells, 1 - 6 Li-Ion/Li-Poly/Li-Fe/LiHV/ULiHV cells or 2-24 V lead-acid batteries
Adjustable charging current (0.2 A - 20.0 A) in each channel (max. 100 W with mains supply, max. 500 W with supply from a car battery or from a powerful switching power supply)
Adjustable discharge current 0.2A - 1.5A in each channel
Max. charging power 1x 800W in parallel charging mode
Max. discharge power 2x 15 W, max. 1x 30 W in parallel charging mode
Automatic delta peak charging for NiCd and NiMH batteries
Lithium and lead-acid batteries are charged using the "constant current/constant voltage" method.
Adjustable sensitivity of the delta peak detection for NiCd and NiMH batteries
Adjustable charging and discharging voltage for lithium and lead batteries
Three lithium battery modes - charge, discharge and storage mode, all with or without a balancer. Plus discharge mode for safely disposing of a battery before handing it off for recycling.
Channel CH1 can work as a stabilized power supply with adjustable voltage 2-30 and current 1.0-5.0A.
Easy firmware update with USB-C port
Color backlit LCD display with a simple and clear menu and display of parameters during charge/discharge
Programming buttons for easy and clear setting and control of the charger
A number of warning messages contribute to safe operation - wrong input voltage, wrong connection, unsuitable battery or its condition, wrong polarity at the output, etc.
Fan for forced cooling
Compact plastic housing, small dimensions
In both channels, the charger is equipped with XT60 output sockets and universal sockets for JST-XH balancer plugs, which allow the direct connection of battery power cables and JST-XH balancer plugs from 2-6S sets. If you use XT60 and JST-XH connector sets, you do not need charging cables and adapters. You can use standard Sky RC adapter or RC system to connect balance plug of other systems.
Scope of delivery:
Charger KAVAN C100 Duo, instructions.
LANGUAGE CHANGE from Czech: The charger is delivered from the factory with menu navigation in Czech. Some might find it difficult to change this (e.g. to German or English). But it's very simple:
1. After switching on, keep BOTH menu buttons pressed for approx. 2 seconds => the main menu opens.
2. Select the second to last menu item using the arrow keys ("System. nastaveni") and confirm with a menu button.
3. Use the arrow keys to scroll down to page 2, to the "Jazyk" menu item (symbol of a globe) and confirm with the menu button.
4. Select language with the arrow keys and confirm with the menu button.
