anyone know how to change the input ampage on the 10s without the pc lead?
i dont know what mine is set to and at the moment i only have a 10amp power supply at hand, i know you can tell the 10s what ampage supply your using so it dont try to draw too much from the supply, problem is i dont have a pc lead.
where in the uk can i get a lead and how much are they or could someone lend me one to check my 10s?

what other use would this cable be apart from changing input ampage?

You can update firmware, create charging profiles, log charge cycles, monitor charging via the PC rather than from the 10S display and view graphs of voltage, charge current, IR etc from both the current charge cycle or previously logged data.

You can set up your presets , you can also get quite a bit of imformation on your p.c / laptop while charging packs , theres a lot more info you can get than on the 10s screen mate .

Although they are a bit overkill for the 10S the server PSUs you can get of ebay are really good value. I got a Dell 86GNR 900Watt 12V unit for £30. From what I have read on this unit the negative output is not bonded to earth so you can also put 2 in series without modification. One thing to be aware of though is that the input is a 16Amp IEC socket so standard IEC leads will not fit.
