Another thing I found out, the powersupply uses boost mode switching. That probably doesn't mean much to most people, but this charger uses the battery voltage to determine the power supply voltage. The circuitry simply boosts the 12v input to a point a little higher than that. Pretty simple yet effective. :)
Not to Hijac a thread here, but I'm curious to what you just said about the Hyperion. Mine will have no problem doing my 4s in series, and as you know all to well Brian, I cannot get the 5s to charge (unless the packs are half charged already), so would this mean that the input voltage is too low to charge my 5s? If so, can I get my powersupply to push enough volts to charge my 5s?:032:
