FAQs

What is the maximum charge current per channel?

The charger supports a maximum charge current of 12A per channel.

Can I charge two different types of batteries at the same time?

Yes, the GT Power X2 Pro has dual independent channels, allowing you to charge two batteries of potentially different chemistries and capacities simultaneously, provided they are within the charger's supported types.

What is the 'Smart QR Code' feature?

This feature allows you to scan a QR code on compatible batteries. The charger will automatically read the battery's specifications and set the appropriate charging parameters, simplifying the setup process.

What is the maximum charge power for AC and DC input?

The maximum AC charge power is 200W, and the maximum DC charge power is 400W.

Does this charger include a power supply?

The UK version typically comes with an AC power cord. An external AC adapter or a DC power source is required for operation.

What types of lithium batteries can be charged?

The charger supports LiPo, Li-ion, and LiFe battery chemistries, with support for 1 to 6 cells.

What is the 'Power Feedback Discharge' function?

This function allows the charger to discharge a battery and feed the energy back into the power source (AC mains or DC input), which can be more efficient than standard discharge to a load.

Troubleshooting

Charger does not power on

Verify the power connection (AC adapter plugged in securely or DC source providing voltage). Check the main power switch. Ensure the input voltage is within the operating range.

Error message during charging

Refer to the charger's manual for specific error code meanings. Common issues include incorrect battery type selection, faulty battery, or temperature warnings. Disconnect and re-select parameters.

Slow charging speed

Ensure the selected charge current is appropriate. Check if charging from AC or DC; DC input may offer higher power if the source supports it. Ensure no other high-power devices are drawing from the same power source.

Battery not balancing correctly

Confirm the balance lead is correctly connected to the charger's balance port. Ensure the battery's balance leads are undamaged. Check if the battery is nearing the end of its life or has internal cell issues.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Dual independent charging channels for efficiency
  • Flexible AC and DC power input options
  • High maximum charge current (12A)
  • Wide range of battery chemistries and cell counts supported
  • Includes advanced features like tyre warm and servo test

Cons

  • Feature-rich interface may have a steep learning curve for beginners
  • Maximum discharge power is limited
  • Requires separate balance chargers for specific lithium battery types

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: Connect the appropriate power source (AC adapter or DC input). Select the battery type and chemistry using the intuitive interface. Configure charge/discharge parameters such as current, voltage, and cell count. For advanced features like tyre warm or servo test, follow the on-screen prompts specific to each function.

Compatibility: The charger supports NiMH, NiCd, LiPo, Li-ion, LiFe, and Pb (Lead Acid) batteries. Ensure your battery's specifications fall within the supported cell counts and voltage ranges.

Care: Keep the charger clean and dry. Use a soft, damp cloth for cleaning; avoid abrasive materials or solvents. Ensure ventilation ports are unobstructed to prevent overheating. Store in a cool, dry place when not in use.
