Vapcell SU2 - powerful 2-slot quick charger for Li-Ion, LiFePO4, NiMH/NiCd and 1.5V Li-Ion batteries
Item number: 500527
Manufacturer: Vapcell
The Vapcell SU2 is a powerful universal charger for a wide range of modern battery types and has been specially developed for users who want to charge their batteries reliably and in a controlled manner. With two independently operating charging bays, precise charge monitoring and a wide adjustable charging current range, the charger is suitable for everyday use as well as for demanding applications in the hobby or technical sector.
High charging current and flexible current selection for many cylindrical batteries
In addition to the classic charging process, the Vapcell SU2 offers flexible current control in auto or manual mode. In auto mode, the charging current is automatically assigned based on the measured internal resistance, while in manual mode the charging current can be selected specifically. This allows the charging behaviour to be adapted to different cell types and areas of application. (1.5V Li-Ion: charging function only, charging current not freely adjustable)
Universal charger for Li-ion, LiFePO4, NiMH, NiCd and 1.5 V Li-ion batteries
Thanks to the broad support of numerous Li-ion, LiFePO4, NiMH and NiCd batteries as well as 1.5 V Li-ion batteries, the Vapcell SU2 is a versatile charger for many common battery formats. This makes it suitable for torch, electronics, measuring device and modelling batteries as well as for many other everyday applications.

Important note: For small Li-ion batteries such as 10440 or 14500, Pro mode should preferably be used in conjunction with Manual mode and reduced charging current. For unknown or very small cells, the charging current should always be selected based on the data sheet. A detailed table of the charging currents can be found under "Technical data" or as a download in PDF format.
