Blueshape V-lock Charger 4-Way
Key Features Charges 2 Batteries Simultaneously 4-Pin XLR Power Output Track Charging Activity Automatically Log Battery Fleet Data IPCS/CTP Fast Charge & Overheat Features Real-Time Monitoring Chart AUX Port Monitoring Status LEDs Fan Vent Carry Handle This BLUESHAPE portable 4-Channel Charger allows you to charge two V-mount lithium-ion batteries simultaneously and two sequentially. It also features a 4-pin XLR power output for providing extended power to your camera. Included with the charger is a monitoring utility that lets you track charging activity and log battery fleet data for performance analysis of the batteries. Charge time is approximately 2 hours per channel for 70Wh batteries and 4.5 hours per channel for 210Wh batteries. The monitoring utility (model BSCVMon, Windows-compatible) supports up to four chargers of different models, with up to 32 batteries simultaneously in real-time. For BLUESHAPE batteries and batteries compatible with the BLUESHAPE protocol, a host of parameters can be monitored, including state of charge, remaining charge time, battery state, cycle life, and cell temperature. Current, voltage, and approximated state of charge can be tracked for all other batteries. A real-time chart for each charger provides info for the whole pack of batteries and for each single cell. The data from each battery can be recorded automatically day after day to build a history log for your fleet and simplify the fleet's management. The software also monitors the state of the AUX port. A USB to data-socket cable is included for connecting the charger to your computer. This charger features a BLUESHAPE technology called IPCS (Intelligent Pre-Charge System) that allows it to provide charge at increased speeds to batteries with fast-charge supporting features, such as pre-charge protection and cell-balancing. IPCS does this by initially boosting very low voltage cells to a state at which charge can be applied with a medium-low current without causing damage. Then it charges with a 300mA current for a while, and when the battery reaches a reasonable voltage state, the charger speeds up the charge process by switching to full throttle. To counteract the increased heat caused by this fast-charging activity, the charger employs another BLUESHAPE technology, called CTP (Charger Thermal Protection), that allows the electronics to work out the best possible charge profiles without causing damage, even in adverse temperature conditions.
