PowerBox Systems Sensor | JR #6310
The PowerBox Sensor is probably the best-known product in the PowerBox portfolio. Thanks to its two voltage regulators, it can be used almost anywhere where double safety is to be combined with modern battery technology. The small design and low weight make it easy to install in small to medium-sized models.
The PowerBox Sensor is a truly redundant power supply system and is in no way inferior to its big brothers in terms of safety. Two completely independent control and switching systems are built in. This not only doubles the number of connected batteries, as with all other comparable products on the market: in fact, two microcontrollers, two regulator and switching circuits and double voltage monitoring are built in.
In order to be able to use all modern batteries such as LiPo and LiFePo, the two built-in regulators reduce the voltage to 5.9V, which is compatible with 6V servos. 5s NiMH batteries can also be used, and with fully charged batteries, excessive voltages are also capped at 5.9V. This increases the service life of the servos and ensures a constant torque and constant speed, regardless of the charge level of the batteries.
The two 3-color LEDs indicate the charge level of the batteries in four stages. To gain even more control over the batteries, a minimum value memory stores the lowest voltage value that occurred during the flight. After the flight, the minimum value can be read from the LEDs using buttons I and II.
On request, we can also supply the PowerBox Sensor with 7.4V output voltage for HV systems. There are two different plug systems to choose from on the battery side: Uni or MPX plug.
