SkyRC D200neo AC/DC Multi-Function Smart Charger

[RustyUs]

I don't know when this charger came out, but, at $108-ish US price tag, I would throw it in the mix for those that are shopping for their next charger.

Very cool. And links with the SkyRC app. Nice.

I think it’s a fairly recent release, within the last few years.

They have an upgraded version that uses little tags that when tapped on top of the charger, it tells the charger how many cells, capacity etc.

Looks like a re-badged Hota D6 Pro

Interesting. It's about time something decent came out in that price range. Nice specs on that one, and appears to be direct competition for the Hotas. It even looks kinda like an updated, flashier Hota doesn't it

I bet the PCB looks very similar to the Hotas too. This is like a repeat of the iMax B6 and how there were 20 different brand names out there that all looked the same, just slightly different anodizing.

I saw a documentary about how the electronic products in China are pieced together from premade parts. Like the PCB gets made by a manufscturing company, then sold to various popup companies who all use various other components to build the the final product. They create the housing to make it their own. Open source firmware gets slightly tweaked from one company to the next, giving slightly different user interface appearances. Ever notice how all the chargers in the $50 price range all had exactly the same menus and button layout?

Just like the reprap 3d printers started out. Creality CR10, Anycubic, etc... same exact printers, just slightly different parts bolted on the main design. Same way Apple iphones used Samsung screens for awhile.

Buy one Rusty and open her up!

I'd love to have one. If my D6 ever dies, I'll have to research the reviews of the D200neo before the purchase. I don't remember seeing the D200neo when I was comparing chargers and bought the iCharger DX6 back in March.

The iCharger DX6 is so nice for the price point. I’ve had mine for over a year and it’s just been great.

SkyRC was actually pretty well thought of back in the day as having the best chargers for 18650's and such. I bought one. Cost me $160. I had it 3 days, and never even got to try it out before my apartment got broken into and they stole it.

In fact, I still have a smaller one from 15 years ago or so. I also have a SkyRC LiPo charger that is still going. It's so old it's probably worth more than when I bought it I use it for tiny whoop batties.

I still have my Duratrax ICE, peak detecting charger for the NiMH I sometimes use as bench power for receivers/servo checkers.
