This charger has a JST-XH charge plug, which makes it compatible with Zippy, HXT, Loong Max and any pack with a JST adapter.
It does not operate from mains. It requires a DC Power Supply. You can also find them on ebay. Search for "12V Power Supply 10A". Do you need 8 cells? You may be better of getting the IMAX B6, which charges 6 cells, and you can get away with a much cheaper 12V 7A Power Supply.
Hi i am from Australia i was just wondering if i bought this charger would i need to by an adapter because in america it is 110 v and Australia it is 240v. So would i need to a get an adapter thanks
What you will need is a DC Power Supply. The Operating voltage rangeis stated at 10.0~18.0Volt rated at over 150W to give you a safety margin. Something like "HobbyKing 600W / 17V Power Supply (AUS Warehouse)" would be ideal to supply 4 of these units.
i just bought one of these a week ago, and i put it on my car battery to charge my battery, and it just doesnt turn on what so ever, ive tried 3 diffrent battries and still nothing

I bought this and the Turnigy Accucel 8 to compare. Operation of both is identical. The only differences of the Turnigy seem to be the better buttons, bigger screen, bigger overall, longer charging cable, and multiple balancer sockets.
Negs: Difficult to figure out how to use properly; Error messages don't often have relevance to the actual problem; NiMH Trickle charge minimum is 50mA - too high for small capacity batteries (9V 200mAh); Charging current increments are minimum 100mA - need to be 50mA; Lowest charging current is 100mA which is too high for small capacity cells (9V 200mA)
Pros: Cheap. Can charge many cells. Small. Does the job
