AWT L8?

[B.S.]

Anyone know anything about this AWT L8 charger?

e.g. https://www.fasttech.com/products/0/10037043/8054300-awt-l8-8-slot-li-ion-2a-battery-charger , https://aweitebattery.en.alibaba.com/product/60552142148-218807166/AWT_L8_USB_li_ion_battery_charger_8_slots_2A_input_fast_charger_for_vape_rx200s_battery.html (Ignore the for_vape_rx200s in that - the same product is listed multiple times there.)

From what I can tell of Mooch's posts ... have no reason to look at AWT (18650) batteries vs others commonly available, but http://lygte-info.dk/review/Review%20Charger%20AWT%20Lii-1000%20UK.html comment of "The charger works like somebody has tried designing the simplest charger to maintain LiIon batteries. I.e. provide exactly what is needed with a simple user interface and nothing more." makes me think / hope they applied same premise / principle to this one.

Seems like in between an xtar Dragon VP4 Plus and an Opus BT-C3100 so could be interesting.

A link to an English ('Canadian') manual would be really appreciated.

Thanks for any thoughts.

If an 8 bay is needed, I highly recommend the Enova Gyrfalcon All-88. It offers up to 1 amp per channel, individually controlled, across 8 bays, and can charge 7 26650 simultaneously... or 8 20700, 18350, 18650, 18500, or any combination...

8-bay not needed, but can appreciate more than 2 2A slots.

Analyzing (mAh) desired, so can watch deterioration / matching, though.

And if one is going to put out the $ for it, it may as well be a power bank.

I can appreciate value for $, so take the point of the problem of the cost of the Dragon - but at least it's a power bank, and if I have to have yet another device around, it may as well be one.

I've noticed the SkyRC MC3000 comments, but phooey on the complexity. I also note the Opus BT-C3100 (3400?) comments, and appreciate the Dragon cost differential ... but go back to yet another device / one off purchase K.I.S.S. solution. (Even if the pocketbook hurts a bit more.)

e.g. Already have a DMM, don't 'need' the Dragon's ... but then don't have to haul out the DMM, either.

Never mind.

I haven't found out any significant more info, but it looks like the display is for V only (plus battery gauge of 4 levels) - and it isn't clear that as a power bank it uses any more than the last slot.

It only now occurs to me that there's no evidence of analyzing capability, like mAh, so I'll move on.
