The manual says discharge current 5A max. But the maximum discharge power is only 30W. So you can discharge a 3s lipo max at 2A only. This is not said in the manual in imax or Bantam BC8 either.

Research first in google by brand and see the complains that donґt apear.
Tried charging a 9.6 v 1650 Nimh at 200mha and the charger almost burned the battery in less than 10 minutes. (it was suposed to take 10 hours)
The Gt Power 8 are the same charger and same defects.

The charger works and does a good job at balancing the packs. I don't have a problem with the charging aspect however it is very frustrating that this is the only charger which list discharge rating as 0.1-5.0 amp with out a max watt for discharge. IT does have a max watt during discharge - 25w. What battery pack are you going to discharge at 5 amps? A 5volt pack!
Please update the product listing - 25w discharge only.
3) B6 balancing inaccuracy
change the voltage measurement circuit resistor from 1% to to 0.1%
2493 = 249k
2433 = 243k
473 = 47k
4993 = 499k
