Phantom 4 Charging Hub compatible with P4p

[tomic]

Does anyone know if the P4 charging hub is compatible with the higher capacity batteries of the P4P?

 

[msinger]

Yes -- it's compatible.

 

[Erised]

Yep! Same battery voltage just more output so they will only take a bit more time to charge.

 

[Erised]

Dang msinger your fast!

Yes -- it's compatible.

Once a battery is charged whilst in the off position, is it best to disconnect the battery from charge and then turn them on and then re connect to the charger to get a full charge?

Thanks for the quick responses.

Would there be any issues with charging P4 batteries and P4P batteries at the same time ?

No. The hub will fully charge all of the batteries.

I'm thinking of this charge without using the hub. I thought I read somewhere this action gives 100% charge

I get a 100% charge no matter if I use the hub or just the charger.

Have you ever tried disconnecting the battery from full charge and turning it on (out of drone) and charging?

Yes. You must do that to top off a battery that is nearly fully charged.

Can you elaborate? Don't get what you mean...

When the battery is almost fully charged (e.g. 99%), it will not charge if you connect it to the battery charger. You must turn the battery on and then connect it to the battery charger in order to force it to top off the battery.

Oh OK Not sure that one percent is really worth it... plus it might hurt your battery life?

Mike, I thought that didn't work on P4 batteries, it only works with P3. Did DJI update the P4 battery firmware to support the "top off mode"?
