Product Specifications

Exact discharge power, balancing current, dimensions, weight, display specifications, and battery-cell limits can depend on the specific firmware and operating configuration. Verify the current Junsi documentation for final model-specific specifications.

Dual-Channel Charging

The 4010DUO is built around two independent charging channels. This allows users to manage two compatible battery packs simultaneously instead of waiting for one pack to finish before charging another.

Each channel can be configured according to the connected battery's chemistry, cell count, and charging requirements. For applications requiring greater output, the channels can also be configured for synchronous operation when supported by the selected charging mode.

This makes the charger suitable for both everyday multi-pack charging and more demanding high-power battery applications.

40A High-Current Charging

With a maximum charging current of 40A per channel, the iCharger 4010DUO is designed for high-capacity batteries that can safely accept substantial charging currents.

The actual charging current depends on the battery manufacturer's specifications and the charger's available input power. Users should never select a charging current simply because the charger is capable of supplying it; the battery manufacturer's recommended charging rate should always take priority.

2,000W Maximum Charging Power

The 4010DUO provides up to 2,000W of combined charging power, giving it the capacity needed for demanding battery-charging applications.

The available output is affected by:

• Input voltage
• Input power-supply capacity
• Battery voltage
• Selected charging current
• Number of channels in operation
• Charger temperature
• Operating mode

An appropriately sized external DC power supply is therefore required to take advantage of the charger's higher output capabilities.

10S Lithium Battery Support

The charger is designed to work with lithium battery packs containing up to 10 cells in series, making it suitable for higher-voltage RC battery systems.

Supported lithium chemistries include common types such as:

• LiPo
• Li-ion
• LiFe
• LiHV

The correct battery chemistry and cell count must always be selected before beginning a charging cycle.

Integrated Cell Balancing

For multi-cell lithium packs, the integrated balancing function monitors individual cell voltages and helps bring the cells into a more consistent state during charging.

Cell balancing is particularly important for multi-cell packs because individual cells can develop different voltage levels over repeated charging and discharging cycles.

The balancing system can help users monitor:

• Individual cell voltage
• Cell-to-cell voltage differences
• Pack balance condition
• Battery performance over time

Battery Internal-Resistance Measurement

The iCharger 4010DUO can measure battery internal resistance, giving users another way to evaluate battery condition.

Internal resistance can be useful when comparing packs or identifying individual cells that are beginning to perform differently from the rest of the pack.

This feature is particularly valuable for users who maintain a large collection of RC batteries and want to monitor pack condition over time.

Regenerative Discharge

The 4010DUO supports regenerative discharge, which can return energy from the battery being discharged to the charger's DC input source rather than converting all of that energy into heat.

This is particularly useful for high-power battery cycling because regenerative discharge can reduce the amount of energy that needs to be dissipated through conventional resistive loads.

External Discharge

For applications requiring greater discharge power than the charger's internal discharge circuit can provide, the 4010DUO can be used with an appropriate external load.

This provides additional flexibility for:

• Battery capacity testing
• Battery cycling
• Storage preparation
• Battery comparison
• Performance evaluation

The external load must be correctly selected and connected according to Junsi's operating instructions.

Multiple Battery Chemistries

The 4010DUO is not restricted to lithium batteries. It can also support other rechargeable battery technologies, including:

• NiMH
• NiCd
• Lead-acid/Pb

This broad chemistry support makes the charger useful for hobbyists, technicians, and workshops that work with different types of rechargeable batteries.

Display and Monitoring

The charger provides detailed operating information so users can monitor the charging or discharging process. Depending on the selected operating mode, information can include:

• Battery voltage
• Charging current
• Discharge current
• Charged capacity
• Discharged capacity
• Power
• Elapsed time
• Individual cell voltage
• Internal resistance
• Temperature
• Charging status

This information allows users to track battery performance rather than relying solely on a simple charge-complete indicator.

Thermal Management

High-power battery charging produces heat, particularly when operating near the charger's maximum output. The 4010DUO incorporates active cooling to help manage operating temperature.

Temperature monitoring and controlled fan operation help the charger maintain suitable operating conditions. Output can be limited when thermal conditions require additional protection.

DC Power Requirements

The iCharger 4010DUO is a DC-powered charger and does not include an integrated AC mains power supply. A suitable external DC power source is required.

For high-power operation, the external supply must be capable of providing sufficient voltage, current, and total wattage. An undersized power supply can limit the charger's available output.

Recommended Applications

The Junsi iCharger 4010DUO is suitable for:

• RC cars
• RC aircraft
• RC helicopters
• RC boats
• High-voltage LiPo battery packs
• Battery capacity testing
• Battery cycling
• Battery balancing
• Battery maintenance
• Model-sport workshops
• High-power battery charging stations

Safety Considerations

The 4010DUO is a high-power battery charger and should be used according to the manufacturer's instructions. Always verify the battery chemistry, cell count, voltage, and permitted charging current before starting a charge cycle.

Do not charge batteries that are damaged, swollen, leaking, excessively hot, or otherwise suspected of being unsafe. Lithium batteries should be charged in an appropriate location using suitable fire-safety precautions.
