PL8 mah in (parallel charge)

[rich-6]

I'm charging my batteries using my PL8 for the first time.

I have 4 packs on the MPA board and have told the charger 4 @ 4a packs also so it automatically calculates 16a for a 1c charge rate, I'm just looking at the screen how many mah it's put into the packs, Is this how many milliamps it has put into one single pack or should it be multiplying this by 4 too?

I'm charging 6s 4000mah which would normally end ~2000mah going back into them on my 206b from storage per pack this is why I'm getting confused.

So far though this has well been worth its money 👍

The charger sees it as 1 pack

It will tell you how much per pack.

Provided you have put the correct number in when programming of course....

I can verify this. I had 4 5'000mAh 6S pack in identical storage charges. In total, the charge would have delivered 10'000mah but only reported it as 2'500mAh

The pl8 works out the math for you so if you tell it you wish to prog @ 4 amps and there are 6 packs it will automatically charge @ 24 amps 1c
