Does somebody know a good 6s/12s? Lipo charger?
I have 2x 12.000 6s Lipos and it takes for ever to charge them one by one with Just 2.2A because its limited to 80Watts. (imax b6) Would prefer a not so expensive charger.

will this damage my wheel if I keep using it? I had a quite hard fall today at 50kph and the board surprisingly survived quite well under those circumstances. But it left me with that scratch.
And I also had a wheel that lost a ton of air, but it doesn’t seem to be flat yet.

For like 100 usd
This diagram îs for discharge bms or for only charge. And The fuse îs on The positive charger port?
And Îs not a big different between The diagram
This for “bypass” where the ESCs are not discharging through the BMS. The lights or accessories, however, should be.
I put the loopkey and fuse on the positive when wiring this way. If you don’t need lights/accessories, then maybe like this
but with a lights/accessories circuit, more like

I use an AR400 from keenstone and separate ac/DC power supply, can do 500W total so for two 6S can parallel charge at 500 / 25.2V = 19A (limited by charger and max voltage needed). If both are say 5Ah batteries can charge them at full 1C with 10A in 1hr. Pretty sure model I have is discontinued but replaced by other 500W options.
If its only scratch, smoothen it down a bit and that’s it. If there is a crack, replace tge hub ring. You only need half the hub.

Thankyou. I will use without lights 
I somehow only find 1 model but limited to 100w. amazon only gives me 6 Results with lipo charger 500w. And everything i find is limited to 100w or costs over 100+ bucks.
Yah one I got was $80 so wasn’t super cheap but it is unavailable now. I’ve heard good things about these as well (isdt one) but pretty sure also still requires beefy ac to DC was previously using a bench power supply I use for testing stuff without exploding it for that but been using led driver ac to DC 500W for at least a few months now I think.

Damn those are some prices. Thanks.
Option B would be to hook up a BMS and use a Standart 12s charger, like the ones i already use on my 10s batteries.

@xsynatic Yeah, I’m really confused why anyone wants to use the hobby-style chargers at all.
A BMS and a brick charger seems so much better to me. I sold my iMax B6 a long time ago because that whole shenanigan sucked asshole.
I guess they’re great if you enjoy maintenance {and dislike water-resistant boards}, but I happen to prefer riding above that

Most of them are super expensive or suck like the b6.
Yeah it handles 6A, but oh you have a 6s battery? 2Amps, take it or leave it sucker.
Charging 24Ah with 2 Amps is not fun.
Just gotta find someone who hooks my batteries up to a bms because i aint touching that.
I charge 29Ah with 2A all the time.
