Frequently Asked Questions - IMAXRC B6 Hyperion
What types of batteries can the Hyperion IMAXRC B6 charge?
The charger supports LiPo, LiFe, Li-ion, NiMH, NiCd, and PB (lead-acid) batteries. It can handle 1-15 cells for LiPo/LiFe/Li-ion and NiMH/NiCd, and 2-20V for lead-acid.
What is the maximum charge current and power?
The maximum charge current is 5.0 A and the maximum charge power is 50 W. Ensure your battery's specifications do not exceed these limits.
How do I select the correct charging mode?
Press the 'Batt type/stop' button to cycle through battery types. Use the 'Enter' button to confirm. Then use 'Inc' and 'Dec' to set the cell count, current, and voltage. Press 'Enter' to start charging.
What does balance charge mode do?
Balance charge mode monitors each cell individually and adjusts the charge to keep them at the same voltage. This is essential for Lithium-based batteries (LiPo, LiFe, Li-ion) to prevent overcharging and extend battery life.
How do I connect the battery?
Connect the main power leads to the output terminals (red to positive, black to negative). For balance charging, attach the balance connector to the corresponding balance board port. Ensure correct polarity.
Can I charge two batteries at once?
No, this charger only supports one battery at a time. However, you can use a parallel balance board to charge multiple batteries in parallel, but ensure the total current and capacity do not exceed charger limits.
What does the 'Storage' mode do?
Storage mode charges or discharges the battery to a safe storage voltage (typically 3.8V per cell for LiPo). This helps preserve battery life when not in use for extended periods.
Why does my charger display 'CONNECTION BREAK' or 'BATTERY CHECK'?
This error indicates a poor or reversed connection. Check that the battery leads are securely connected with correct polarity and that the balance plug is fully inserted. Ensure the battery is not already fully charged or defective.
How do I update the firmware?
The Hyperion IMAXRC B6 does not have user-updatable firmware. It comes with pre-installed firmware. If needed, contact Hyperion support for possible updates via special equipment.
Is the charger protected against reverse polarity?
Yes, the charger has built-in reverse polarity protection. If you accidentally connect the battery backward, the charger will display an error and not start charging. This prevents damage to the charger and battery.
