SP140...DC charging too?

Presumably the SP140 will charge from an AC wall outlet in a house, but will it also be able to be charged from a DC source (such as a solar system)? It would be a shame to have to do an AC conversion when it will just be lost energy.

it’s a DC battery, so set up solar controller for Li-ion charging /voltage and away you go.

yep dc is no problem and the bms is built into the battery so it will be balanced charged as well.

BMS built in is great news for pilots that aren’t familiar with the dangers of balancing and maintaining cells. Also I don’t think it’s a reach to guess this means cell voltages are monitored while discharging. Awesome! :smile:
