first three ports don't work
"The first two ports don't work, the third just says 'err' and ports 5-8 are working. Instrumentation looks good, but bad ports suggest quality control issues"







The XTAR VC8 is an 8-channel charger that supports Li-ion, NiMH, and NiCd chemistries. This charger supports QC3.0 fast charging and has a max 3A current for each slot. This can be changed manually to either 3A, 2A, 1A, 0.5A, or 0.25A allowing the user to adjust the currents to the demands of their batteries. The XTAR VC8 utilizes a USB-C input current for faster charging of all the batteries. Another great bonus to this battery charger is that integrated LCD screen that provides real-time information including voltage, capacity, internal resistance, and battery type. The VC8 has two user modes: grade and storage. Storage mode makes it easier to charge or discharge batteries to its rated voltage to maximize the lifespan of your batteries especially when they're in transport. Grade mode tests the true capacity of your batteries so you'll know what they're truly capable of.

"The first two ports don't work, the third just says 'err' and ports 5-8 are working. Instrumentation looks good, but bad ports suggest quality control issues"
"It’s most impressive engineers and technical staff have managed to produce a charger that charges everything. The digital displays are useful and cleanly configured and the trickle rate for charging is not very long. I’ve only used it a few times but I will continue to observe its reliability. So far so good."
"Works good. Charges a lot of different size batteries. Bought mainly for 21700 size battery. 21700 with usb charging is a tight fit. Only gave it 4 stars because display can be a little hard to see at times."
"So far, it works great! Dinged one star due to lack of a stand-a-lone wall charger."
"Very nice charger which is USB powered. It charges both nimh and li ion batteries which I have plenty of both. It doesnt make the batteries hot which is good for the longevity of the batteries. I highly recommend this charger!"
