Cellpro 10s Temps ??? HOT

[Randall]

How hot do your 10s's get people? Upgraded my PSU today always had a 14amp supply now have 32amp. so charged flat out (10amps @ 6 cells 4 packs at a time) it seemed to max out about8-9 amps moving about. but it got seriously hot as in i could not keep my hand on the top heatsink for more than about 8 seconds as it was hurting.

However i have noticed that online most places seem to state it as a 200watt charger. when i updated it to not current limit @14 amps the control software says its 300watt. i was pulling about 230-240watts charging today even the supply cable attached to the charger got fairly hot :-S

Im not convinced that it should be getting this hotcan some one confirm what theres does when its running flat out.

Is the fan working???

is it really a 12V 32amp PSU? remember the 10S is not meant for 24V PSUs just 12-15V ... I ran mine on the Revolectrix PS13.8V 28A PSU charging at 8Amps and after 2-3 LiPos it got very hot as well ...

Yes the fan is working, still sounds like a harrier coming into land,

yup 12.12V to be exact and yes 32amp

it is getting really toasty i guess nothing much i can do its a good 5 years old (got it the day they came out) i have never pushed the charge this hard before but im shocked how hot its getting.

Oh well took the 500 out tonight and binned it. so wont be charging batts for a couple of days lol. Fast lad here i come
