Battery charging systems

[Matt Sanders]

Seriously considering a Super-Charging Station like this one at Amazon (see link). What I want to know is how the repeatedly super-charging effects overall battery life. Does it really charge 4X FASTER THAN STOCK, 15.7 Amps. All ideals welcome.

You might want to look at one of these and save a few $$. Quite a few people on the forum use them -(or a similar one)-, with good results. I've had one for over a year, and never had any problems.Amazon.com : SKYREAT 4 in 1 Rapid Battery Charger for DJI Phantom 4 / 4 Pro / 4 Pro+ Battery and Remote Controller Transmitte (Blue) : Sports & Outdoors

Charging at higher than recommended by the battery manufacturer will generate higher internal heats and reduce battery life. In an extreme case FIRE. Consider the news stories about "Hoverboards" in the last year or two. Lithium batteries in an enclosed space with limited cooling, not given time to even cool off before charging again because the kid (of whatever age...) is in a hurry to get back out there. The result is what has already been reported.... Physics is very unforgiving.

You can't exceed the the Charging rate of DJI batteries. The battery's on-board electronics regulate that.
The charger cited charges 3 at once not 'faster'. Marketing hype.

I got a similar one and I swear it cuts out the overall battery life more then the official one. So I don't use it anymore. Plus one of the leads always makes the battery stop and flash on the 3rd light.

Thanks to everyone for your thoughts. You'll gave me some things to think about.
