ToolkitRC M8D dual-channel charger for 1–8S lithium battery work
The ToolkitRC M8D is a two-channel DC charger for battery preparation, balancing and controlled discharge where the operator needs separate 1–8S outputs. It accepts 10–49V DC input, supports LiPo, LiHV, LiFe, Li-ion and LTO packs from 1–8S, and supports NiMH packs from 1–20S. The official specification lists lead-acid support; confirm the exact pack and charging profile before use.
Use asynchronous charging for two channels at up to 30A each and 800W total, or synchronous charging for up to 50A and 1600W when the input source, wiring and battery allow it. Recycle discharge is rated up to 30A per channel and 800W total; normal discharge is up to 10A and 40W. Balance current is 2000mA at 4.2V. The USB-C output is rated 65W at 5–20V, subject to the specified input condition.
The M8D is suitable for workshop charging of UAV and RC battery packs, but it is not a substitute for a protected power supply, correctly rated leads, or a battery manufacturer’s safety procedure. Do not exceed the pack’s cell count, current, temperature or connector limits, and do not use a charge profile that has not been confirmed for the battery chemistry.
For a larger single-channel charger, compare the Ultra Power UP3500. For UAV propulsion-system selection, see the AM110 power-system kit and the drone batteries category.
ToolkitRC M8D FAQ
What battery types and cell counts does the M8D support?
It supports LiPo, LiHV, LiFe, Li-ion and LTO batteries from 1–8S, plus NiMH from 1–20S. Lead-acid support is listed by ToolkitRC; confirm the applicable profile before charging.
Can both channels deliver 1600W at the same time?
1600W and 50A are the synchronous-mode maximums. Two-channel asynchronous charging is specified at up to 800W total and 30A per channel. The input source and wiring must be rated for the selected mode.
What are the physical size and weight?
The charger is 130×97×42mm and 450g. The listed package size is 140×110×50mm with a package weight of 700g.
