MEC-Energietechnik AV4m Battery Charger coach Diagnostic Charger with LCD display and discharge function (optional)

Customer Review

... Is an impertinence.

I have the right of Mr. AV4m +. Mössinger and technically does the charger as described. Whether other similar devices (eg BC700 / BC900) is superior, I can not judge because I do not have this.

I've bought the charger together with Eneloop batteries and everything works fine. However, I have never checked the state of charge of each battery individually. Therefore I can to the statements that the charging process is terminated as soon as the first battery is fully that the others are only partially charged - say nothing.

FYI: with the latest software version loaded batteries can only ever be loaded together or discharged or .... If so individual batteries loaded, refreshed are others, so this can not be done simultaneously.

On the technical sophistication of the charger I will not go into here because they have already been adequately described.
But the manual .... oh my god !!

Mr. Mössinger certainly has an excellent knowledge of the charging batteries. His "technical" thinking and his extensive knowledge, however, also reflected in the various instructions and descriptions again.
These are simple caves bad as completely unstructured and partially difficult to understand. Often'll technical details mentioned who simply nothing to look at the appropriate places and thus make everything incomprehensible.

Of course, anyone can instantly upload to the charger's battery, perform a refresh and a recyle. But if you want to get started a little lower (z. B. Correct pairing, specifically battery maintenance, etc ..), it will be difficult.

In the instructions available explanations in normal script, as well as single words or phrases are shown in bold font and underlined in part.
In addition, some in red which is probably intended to single out the importance of this case, there are passages which are additionally double-underlined probably something important-important. Plus additional remarks in blue with yellow marking.

So a colorful guide, there is probably nowhere else. From software version to software version and with growing functionality it is colorful and confusing.

In the summary on page 2 that a section alone includes already 14 bullet points, there are descriptions such as:
10. cell control as needed with 1 time DC remeasure the remaining capacity before charging.
Mind you, in the overview of the device. ... Who is going to understand that, without having once at least crossed the 24 A4 pages?

Ultimately, it will probably mean:
If the residual capacity of the inserted cells are found (also called cell control), the necessary values ​​can be measured by one-off unloading (D) and then store (C).
-> By the way, the explanation of how it is made, can be found 2 -3 times in different forms in the guide.

Who wants to always deal with the instructions, takes a lot of patience.
Some information is also not to be found.

My Conclusion:
A technically good device, but the manual should get damages the user.
For the vast majority of users who only want to charge their batteries, there are cheaper alternatives that are probably just as reliable.

Whoever wants to use all the technical possibilities of AV4m, should grab a little deeper into your wallet and then at least the -SVersion with data output to purchase (a whopping 90, - Euro). However, even different software packages are required, but they are to receive free.
Whoever decides to:
After studying the current manual (Feb.15) I have the impression that something technical know-how should be present in order to really work with it.

Without a PC connection, it is more than troublesome to exploit the possibilities of AV4m.

As written, Hr. Mössinger seems to be a quite excellent knowledge of the matter, but content is structured to explain, it does not always completely.
