Hyperion Duo
 

Did your Hyperion come with the cables to update the firmware on the charger? I am trying to decide whether I lost mine or if it doesn't come with it... I just bought it a couple of weeks ago..

Mine didnt come with one

There are a few places that carry them.

Here is one place.

Don't believe they come with cables. My 0610iNet didn't. Its a good investment, besides updating the firmware, cable is also used to connect to laptop or PC to run Hyperion's EOSView software that lets you watch batt charging and save the info on a charge.

Duster, have you ever actually been able to save the info from EOSView? It saves a file for me, but then it can't open it. It always has some kind of error.

I love watching the charge though; checking temp and individual cell voltages without leaving my computer. Very cool feature.

That software has a lot of potential. I would like to be able to set-up the charging profiles on the computer and pass it to the charger. There are many features it could have, but just doesn't yet. It's a great start though!

Looks like I will have to buy one... at least now I know it didn't come with one so I am not tearing everything apart looking for it...

On am up note I got a shipment notification that Mike Cronin has sent me a package Muahahahahah// I think he shipped me some kind of Monster!

Man, don't tell me that! I've been saving them but haven't tried to call one back up. I'll try tonight and let you know, but if you can't do it, I suspect it won't be any diff for me either.

Software def has potential and needs expansion and more capabilities. I hope this is where they're headed with it. I track all my batts in a 3 ring binder so I have some idea of current condition, how many cycles and can see if performance is holding up. That would be the great if I could charge and record and let laptop just do it and keep up with all of it. Running some kind of retreival against the stored data to produce reports to answer questions would be cool.

I just opened EOSView and opened a saved file and its there - what the charger was doing at the end of charge on the charger tab and the complete charge graph is shown in the Graph Ch2 tab. Looks like it opened asaved file from what I see. Is your EOSView version 1.1.1 - thats the one I'm running. I'm connected to the charger via the cable, but the charger is off.

Yeah, mine is 1.1.1. I'll have to play with it more to see if I can get it to work for me. I didn't put much time into it.

Thanks!

I dont want to highjack this, but does the Duo cycle? In my reading of the manual, and going through the mode options, I dont see where you can discharge.

The DUO doesn't discharge/cycle. That's the only reason I kept my ICE actually.

The DUO technically discharges through the balancer at 300mA, but that's only effective for balancing.

If the DUO is like the firmware upgrade made to the0610iNet, the added store functionality is what seems to be causing confusion about discharging. If you select a % at which to store the batt and going in, batt is at a higher capacity than the selected storage value, charger will discharge at minimal amps (300ma) to bring it down to the store value through the balancer. There is no discharge capability per se like the Ice charge has. That is the same reason I kept mine also to keep that discharge capability.

just upadated 1.5 several/few weeks ago man 1.6

DUH! :oops: I should have figured that one out.
