FAQ

What batteries can the Gens Ace iMars S100 charge? The charger supports compatible 2S–6S LiPo, Li-ion, LiHV and LiFe batteries, plus 4–18-cell NiMH battery packs. The correct battery chemistry, cell count and charging parameters must be selected.

Does the iMars S100 work with non-G-Tech batteries? Yes. It can charge compatible conventional batteries. G-Tech smart batteries provide automatic recognition, while non-smart batteries require the appropriate settings to be selected manually.

What is the maximum charging power? The charger provides up to 100W of charging power and up to 10A charging current. The actual current available depends on battery voltage and the charger's power limits.

Does the charger need an external DC power supply? No. The iMars S100 supports direct 100–240V AC mains input and is supplied with an AC power cable according to the product information.

Can the iMars S100 charge a 6S LiPo battery? Yes. It supports compatible 6S lithium battery packs. However, the full 10A charge current will not be available at higher battery voltages because the charger is limited to 100W output.

Can it charge a 1S LiPo battery? No. The manufacturer's specified lithium battery range begins at 2S.

Does the iMars S100 support balance charging? Yes. It supports balance charging for compatible 2S–6S lithium battery packs. Use the correct charging and balance connections for the battery.

Does it have a storage mode for LiPo batteries? Yes. The charger provides storage functionality to help bring supported lithium battery packs towards an appropriate storage voltage.

What connector does the charger use? The charging output uses an XT60 connector. Batteries with other connectors may require a compatible charging adapter.

Can I charge two batteries at once? No. The iMars S100 is a single-channel charger designed to charge one compatible battery pack at a time.

What is the difference between G-Tech and standard battery charging? Compatible G-Tech batteries communicate battery information to simplify charger setup. Conventional batteries do not provide the same smart recognition and require manual confirmation of charging settings.

Is the iMars S100 suitable for RC cars and aircraft? Yes. It supports a range of compatible batteries used in RC cars, trucks, helicopters, drones and aircraft, provided their charging requirements fall within the charger's specifications.
