Xtar wp2 ii

[Shortstuff116]

I've been using my trusty old Trustfire TR-001 for charging all my batteries (14500's and 18650's) since I started mod vaping more than 2 years ago and it has never let me down. With my AW IMR 2000 mah 18650's it's been taking an average of 7-8 hours to recharge them with my TR-001 which runs at 500 mah output. So I purchased a new XTAR WP2 II this past week and allows me to charge batteries at either 500 mah or 1 amp (1000 mah). I set it for 1 amp and my AW's now take a little more than 2 hours to charge.

The XTAR is made in Hong Kong and even though it is not a PILA it appears to be well-made and provides some nice charging features for under $20.00. Another good investment.

I'm VERY glad to read this (thanks!) because I just ordered a 6 bay/channel one for $34, but it's currently in transit. I was going back and forth on the PILA and decided to take the chance on the Xtar. Now it appears that I might end up glad that I did.

I bought one a couple weeks ago and have been very pleased with it. I use 14500s and 18650s. I set it to 1 when charging the 14500s and 2 for the 18650s. (I hope this is right) ive noticed that my batts take quite a bit less time to charge now. I got my 2 bay charger for $18 shipped off ebay

I have two of the WP2's, and one WP6, and I really like them. The WP6 has some funky springs instead of the sliders, but works well. For the money, they are great.

Been using my xtar wp6II for about a month now and the thing works flawlessly. Very satisfied with it and the price tag makes for quite a steal imho!

i stated this in another thread but i'll repost here:

sold my PILA once i got the Xtar's in.
XTAR chargers are VERY good chargers even in comparison with PILA they are either on par or some say better (according to a few reviews and youtube clips) but you know there will always be nay'sayers

version II is the latest version.

Heres a review from a guy who does great testing on them:

When charging aw imr 18350's what is the switch suppose to be on? 1 or 2?

 

[oplholik]

I charge 18350's on the 1 setting. I think the 2 setting would be used for 18650's.
