In this video, we provide a quick look at the new EOS 1420i NET3 charger – 14S, 20A @ 550W provided you have a 24-28V power supply. Of course, the 1420 can also run on 12V but the efficiency is lower and so is the power.

Hello, can I parallel charge with the 1420i Charger since there are 2 balance ports? Thanks!
Comment by Richard — January 21, 2011 @ 07:16
You can’t charge two separate packs on the 1420i NET3 at the same time, only when they are serialized like in a split-pack. The two balance connectors are just a way of connecting more than 7 cells to the balancer. (http://www.hyperion-eu.com/downloads/eos/manuals/1420inet_connection_guide.pdf shows how to connect split packs)

Hello I’ve bought One of this Charger, Ive a packet of 13 Li Ion cells and I could charge this battery without problems and also balancing the cells with a special cable I built.
I have another Packet of lifepo4 of unknown brand but the cells are 16 so I’m going to buy another charge to Use in sync mode with the 1420i could you tell me what cheap chargers with less cells can work with the 1420i?

Hello, how to connect an 1420i to an 14s Batterie?
I don`t now how I have to cofigurate the Balancer cables.
All my trys get an connect error.
Please give me a short Grafik.
Thanks

@Giancarlo:
The only charger that can be used in network mode with the Hyperion EOS 1420i NET3 is an identical one, so to use networking, you would need two EOS 1420i NET3 chargers, which will allow you to charge up to 28S LiPo or LiFePO4 packs, though those packs has to be split in two sections, where each section is no more than 14S

@heini:
I know, it can be a little confusing. I have uploaded a PDF to http://www.hyperion-eu.com/public/manuals/1420inet_connection_guide.pdf that shows how a split pack is connected via serializing of the mail wires. The important part is that the balance connector that relates to the cells that are closest to the negative lead is connected to port A and the balance connector related to the cells closest to positive lead is connected to port B.
When using the term “closest” above, I refer to electric potential, and not physical location on the pack, which can be arbitrary.
All Hyperion split packs are labeled with A and B on the balance connectors and that matches the markings on the charger.

I had a hard time finding an adequately powerful power source for the Hyperion 720i that I bought. I decided to look to the sun for my power. Luckily I have a few solar panels lying around that I could finally put to some good use.
In the link to this picture you will find a Hyperion 720i hooked up to two 95 watt solar panels in parallel (in series the voltage is too high).

First, hyperion Makes good products for a good Price! I have 2 1420 inet Charters, but this Time i wish me you create à New One which can Charge AND BALANCE my 13s Pack WITHOUT SPLITTING the Pack! Also a bigger Display which tells me all 14 Cell voltages on ONE SITE at the Display Would Be PERFECT! Can you Tell me, if hyperion makes à Charger like this in the near Future? Thanks, Michael
Comment by Michael — July 23, 2011 @ 22:30
The other Way: hyperion create a 14s Equalizer/balancer like the Schulze lipoprofibal 14s (Sold out). The only Equalizer i can Buy Today on the market can handle only 12s (Robbe Top Equalizer 12s) with only 70 ma per Cell. Please answere hyperion. Thanks, Michael
Comment by Michael — July 23, 2011 @ 22:42
Hello…
I have a 720i… and it does not want to balance on the one side or takes twice as long as the other..
Have you came across this issue or know how to fix it?
Thanks for any input..
Anthony

I have a 10s pack, that consists in 2 batteries of 5s 3300mAh. So my 10s pack has 3300mAh or 6600mAh? I need this information to right setup in the charger.
Comment by Nivaldo — August 17, 2012 @ 20:25
When you connect the two 5S packs in series (to form a 10S pack), you end up with a pack of the same capacity as your 5S packs (in your case 3300mAh).
If you instead put them in parallel, you will still have a 5S pack, but instead have the double capacity (in your case 6600mAh)
I hope this answers your question.

Hi Anthony,
It could be a mis-configuration, but I’m not sure.
If you purchased the charger within EU, please fill out the form at http://hyperion-eu.com/support/rma/ from where the RMA team will handle the case. Otherwise, please contact your local dealer where you purchased the charger and check with them on how to get help.

Hi, I have the EOS 1420i. I use the USB connection to a PC, however, connection is established for few seconds and then is lost for another few seconds and it connects again. The same is repeated all the time. How can I overcome this problem?
Comment by Chris — August 28, 2012 @ 06:22
Hmm… this sounds a bit weird… Things you can easily check yourself is the USB cable. If you have another cable that you have been using for other equipment (mobile phone, scanner, etc.), please try that and if that doesn’t solve the problem please either contact the dealer where you purchased the charger or submit a request at http://hyperion-eu.com/support/rma/ explaining the problem in detail to have the RMA department look into this.

have you online manual for this charger?
Comment by uSER — September 6, 2012 @ 02:55
All NET3, DUO3 and SDUO3 chargers use the same unified manual available as a PDF at:
http://media.hyperion.hk/dn/eos/EOS-NET&DUO42-MAN-EN46.pdf
There is also a screen flow chart showing the menu navigation:
http://media.hyperion.hk/dn/eos/EOS-NET&DUO42-CHART-EN46.pdf
Hope this helps!

Why when I connect a Lipo shows 43% capacity left and when charging is started the TCS goes to 33% after few seconds? Always, if you check the graph of charging the TCS begins from a higher value and few seconds later (may be 30s) goes lower and then slowly slowly is increasing along with charging.

Hi
Please i need a schematic circuit the hyperion eos 1420inet,i have a problem with the mosfet,thank you.
Best regards.

hello i am charging 4400mah 6s batteries .
power supply is 24v 60a 1200w psu
how do i get the full potential out of the charger ?
it seems to take about60-70mins to charge my packs is this noraml to take that long ,the packs are new
i do want to charge my 12s split packs also and have printed the above drawing regarding it .

Please help, I have an 8S Lipo (1 pack), with a balance connector for 8S. How do I connect it to my 1420i charger?
Comment by Chris — December 27, 2012 @ 21:37
I’m confused with the information given in the manual of the EOS 1420i NET3.
How do I charge and balance at the same time a 2S LiPo pack ?
Thanks in advance,
Fernando
Comment by Fernando — January 14, 2013 @ 22:20
I have the Hyperion 1420i-Net3 charger and want to simultaneously charge two 3300 mAH 3S battery packs which I use in parallel for flying. I assume these both can be charged simultaneouly but I have to charge them in series as per the following:
http://www.hyperion-eu.com/downloads/eos/manuals/1420inet_connection_guide.pdf
When these are in series do I configure the charger to charge for a 6S 6600 maH battery pack? How do I tell it to use the port 2 balancer for the 2nd pack?
Comment by Peter Lester — January 16, 2013 @ 22:35
Hi Peter,
Yes, on the EOS 1420i NET3, you would need to put the two packs in series if you want to charge them at the same time. As long as you plug in the balance cables correctly (using the balancer breakout boards) in regards to A and B as shown on the diagram, you should be OK.
Comment by admin — January 21, 2013 @ 15:53
Hi Fernando,
You don’t need to do anything special to charge and balance at the same time, just connect it all up and start the charge. For 2S, you will need the little balance breakout boards. There are a total 4 different connector types, so depending on what battery you have, you will need to choose the right one. Included with the charger is normally the “Hyperion” adapter that works with all Hyperion packs, and the JST-XH adapter that works with most smaller brands. The two other types (JST-EH and FP) are normally sold separate.
If in doubt, you can try to connect the battery to the board before connecting it to the charger, to see if the connector fits properly.
I hope this helps, otherwise, just let us know.

Hi Chris,
Sorry for the late reply!
You will need an adapter, but unfortunately, it’s not something we have.
Comment by admin — January 21, 2013 @ 16:08
Hi,
I guess you have one of the NET chargers or maybe a DUO charger. In the configuration, you can setup the MAX C-rate for charging. When you have adjusted that up to eg. 5 or 6, you can change the charging program for your pack to charge at a higher current, but make sure to check your batteries, some batteries can only be charged slowly, and if you charge them faster than they should be, they might cause serious damage.

Hi Jorge,
It’s very nice that you want to fix the charger yourself, but unfortunately, we don’t have a circuit diagram that we can give out.
Depending on what the problem is, simply changing out the MOSFET might bring your charger back to life, but when a part like that stops working, sometimes other parts take the same route shortly after.
