[Review] SkyRC MC5000 battery charger and analyzer – a worthy successor to the MC3000?


As a flashlight enthusiast, you might be interested in this new professional battery charger and analyzer for checking and maintaining your batteries.

The full review is available here


English review at BudgetLightForum
German review on my website

Summary


For many years, the SkyRC MC3000 has been considered one of the best chargers for round batteries. The user has full control over the charging process and can set not only the charging current but also many other parameters. It can also connect to a PC or smartphone for settings and data logging.

And here comes the new SkyRC MC5000!

I was really looking forward to the SkyRC MC5000: a modern design with a large color display, innovative scroll-wheel input, charging currents of up to 5 A per slot, Bluetooth connectivity and advanced analysis features.

All in all, everything has worked so far, but the range of functions still seems somewhat limited. Many enhancements could potentially be introduced through firmware updates, such as expanded parameter ranges, more effective use of the status LEDs and possibly even support for 1.5V Li-ion batteries. The absence of program memory slots is particularly disappointing. At this price point, a PC interface for control and data logging should also be included.

In its current form, the SkyRC MC5000 is still a long way from being a real successor for the MC3000. It is not a bad device by any means, but it does not yet fully meet the expectations I have for a professional charger in this class.

@SammysHP That's great except just how many primary batteries do you need to replace before this thing pays for itself? Pricing is not justified. I spent a whole of $30 for a unit from popular mechanics of all places. it charges every chemistry except lithium ion, I have separate chargers for those, does so individually for each battery so I can put say an NiMH in one slot, an alkaline in another, and it will charge as appropriate for each.
in reply to Nanook

I live in a world of mostly Li-ion batteries around me, NiMH come second. Primary (alkaline) batteries? Nope, never use them because of their poor performance, environmental problems and because they leak.

Not all of my devices can charge their Li-ion batteries. A simple charger is enough in most scenarios. You only need an analyzing charger if you want to monitor and maintain the performance of your batteries.

in reply to SammysHP

@SammysHP The reason I use Alkaline in some applications is I have some devices where voltage is important and they will not run on 1.35 NiMH voltage but they will run on 1.6 Alkaline voltage. But I agree, performance is bad. Unfortunately the 1.5v lithium ion cells aren't really 1.5v, they're 3.7 or so and regulated down. This causes two issues, the regular introduces a lot of RF noise, and the voltage is flat right up to the point of complete exhaustion so you can't tell when the battery is ready to crap out.

Yes, unfortunately that is true …

and the voltage is flat right up to the point of complete exhaustion so you can’t tell when the battery is ready to crap out.


There are many models with a voltage warning (either dropping to 1.1V or slowly decreasing voltage):

If there are two batteries in series, you could also try a single LiFePO₄ (with protection circuit), as it keeps a rather stable voltage around 3.2V.

#Gaza #genocide

Dr. Alaa al-Najjar left her ten children at home on Friday when she went to work in the emergency room at the Nasser Medical Complex in southern Gaza.

Hours later, the bodies of seven children - most of them badly burned - arrived at the hospital, according to the Gaza Ministry of Health. They were Dr. Najjar’s own children, killed in an Israeli airstrike on her family’s home, Gaza Civil Defense said. The oldest was 12, the youngest just three years old. The bodies of two more children – a 7-month-old and a two-year-old - remained trapped under the rubble as of Saturday morning.

Only one of her children – critically injured – survived. Dr. Najjar’s husband, himself a doctor, was also badly injured in the strike.

LOL. #Google just insisted I "confirm my number" to continue to use Google Meet. I use a Pixel Phone. You would think Google would already know what my damn phone number is. Also, I've never once used Google Meet since getting the phone.

Apparently you can't uninstall #GoogleMeet. But you can force close it, wipe it's storage & cache, and disable the fucking app from starting back up again.

Fuck you Google. I'm sick of your shit. I would so love to install #GrapheneOS but I need my financial apps unfortunately. I mean I guess I could just use the websites. Need to find a browser then that refuses to nag me to install a site's application.

Most banking apps work just fine on GrapheneOS. Maybe take a look at this compatibility list: privsec.dev/posts/android/bank…

The Era Of The Business Idiot


#politics #economics #neofeudalism

The broader point I’m trying to make is that neoliberalism is inherently selfish, believing that the free market should reign supreme, bereft of government intervention, regulation or interference, thinking that somehow these terms will enable "freedom" rather than a kind of market-dominated quasi-dictatorship where our entire lives are dominated by the whims of the affluent, and that there is no institution that can possibly push back against them.
[...]
When the leader of a company doesn't participate in or respect the production of the goods that enriches them, it creates a culture that enables similarly vacuous leaders on all levels. Management as a concept no longer means doing "work," but establishing cultures of dominance and value extraction.

The anti-SMLW business (where SMLW stands for State and Market of Law and Wellbeing) must always be '...an entity created to do a thing in exchange for money —has been drained of all meaning...' (The Era Of The Business Idiot). This is the central symptom for a proper diagnosis: it reveals whether a business is neoliberal (money-driven) or communist (power-driven) — for in both cases, it has been emptied of meaning.

Note that what both Trump and Putin ultimately seek above all and above all peoples is just that: Money and Power

“Adam öldürdüm, ama katil değilim.”

Sustu toprak, ama ben susturulmadım.
Bir kurşunla değil, milyon suskunlukla döndüm
geriye.
Adımı değil, gölgemi sorguladılar.
Oysa ben, yok olan halkımın bir tanığıydım.

Yeryüzü yandı-ben sadece külleri savurdum.
Ne ellerim titredi, ne yüreğim;
çünkü bazen adalet,
bir halkın sessiz çığlığıdır.

Ben birini öldürdüm,
ama bir halkı savundum.
Ve katil değilim.
