AD-103 Multi-volt charger

How long does this charger take to charge an 18650 2400 mah battery in your experience?

I've had mine on it for about a total of 7 hours now and still have a red light.

and of course 20 minutes later I turn around and the light has turned green

Just posted in another thread how much I like this little charger. I'd rather have two of these than the double charger.

 

[Thyestean]

yeah it's the only one I have so far besides my 14500 one but it works well.

 

[doots]

thats about right 8 hours.

 

[Thyestean]

ahh good to know doots thanks

It has a 500ma output, so if you divide the battery capacity by the ma of the charger that'd give you the worst case time in hours if the battery were completely dead..

 

[Thyestean]

Wait a minute... wouldn't that mean that worst case, completely dead, it should've only taken just under 5 hours?

Cool, now we know the formula:

(@ECF)+20

However long it takes you to post a question on ECF + 20 min.

Oh, and mad vapes claims it has a 330 mAh output, not 500. So 2400/330 = 7.27, so that's not a very precise estimate of charge time.

lol, thanks for the correction..

 

[Thyestean]

ahh that makes a bit more sense seeing as that's just about exactly how long it took
