Jronman Posted January 26, 2018 Report Share Posted January 26, 2018 Seems like if you have 1 battery or 4 charging it will charge them all at the fast charge rate at the same time. Many times in multiport chargers you have some kind of drawback whether it can only charge one battery at a time or it will charge multiple batteries at a time but at a reduced rate. I like this charger. Put one to four 9.0's on the charger, wait 90 minutes and you got them all fully charged. The tough system compatibility is nice. It is nice to see some more specialty tough system items/compatible items get announced. I might consider getting this charger. I'm also looking at some of the other new tough system items like the drawer units and the cooler. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D W Posted January 26, 2018 Report Share Posted January 26, 2018 I really don't know why the single port DCB118 yellow charger does not charge 12V batteries. Let me know if I'm wrong on this. This 4 port looks great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great tools just too many 🤔 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tug Posted January 26, 2018 Report Share Posted January 26, 2018 I'd hazard a guess and say they've used the internals from the portable power station? If I needed that much capacity, I'd be all over this, tis how all chargers should be made. I think the Hilti is similar, if not identical.

This take up space but they need that space in a fast charger for the fan. They could of course have made a bigger charger but I don't think people would have been happy about it. In a 4 bays charger, you have more than enough space to add a second transfomer so it's not a problem. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can't connect any boxes on top of the charger. You can only connect boxes to the bottom of the charger. I am not sure if it can be put onto a tough system wall or van rack.

Mattias Blomqvist Posted January 31, 2018 Report Share Posted January 31, 2018 Nice addition. I think I'll wait for a Tstak model like we saw with the radios [emoji57]Skickat från min SGP511 via Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
