Frequently Asked Questions
What battery balance connector does this charger use?
The IMAX B6AC uses a JST-XH balance connector, compatible with Zippy, HXT, TURNIGY, and other packs equipped with a JST adapter.
Can I charge batteries in the field from my car?
Yes. Simply connect a 12–18 V DC source (such as a car battery) via the supplied cables. The charger’s input voltage monitoring protects your vehicle battery from over-discharge.
How do I check the health of my battery pack?
Use the internal resistance checker mode to measure individual cell impedance. Higher resistance indicates aged or damaged cells, helping you decide when to replace or cycle the pack.
