Progress update! We made some modifications and lowered the temperature as well as added an off on switch!

Ooh! Black. How's the size compare to the previous gen? I'd imagine it's a tiny bit bigger to accodmate the switch?

Still looks to be blue to me, but it's hard to tell from an angle.

It is a bit bigger to accommodate bigger heatsinks and 4 channels.

On a scale of 1 to 10 that is a 0/ZERO

 

[Mr. Salty]

On a scale of 1 to 10 that is a 0/ZERO

Why would a slight size increase on a charger that is capable of what this one can do rate it a zero?

Is a size increase a problem?

NO

1 is no problem, 10 is insurmountable

1. 4 Ports and 2 USB
2. Bigger heatsinks

Is this the replacement charger or will you have two different chargers available, one three port and one four port?

We will have 2 options available, one 3 port, one 4 port.

Fstop I ordered from your sight have the charger and already emailed to get replacement/updated one anyway I can pay the difference and get the new 4 port instead of the updated version of the 3 port?

My Fstop charger is arriving today from amazon. I hope it's the latest one?

 

[Vegasdad]

I use this same brand on inspire,p4p,mavic1,and mavic2 and love it never had a problem.

I noticed the M2 4 battery charger on fstop-labs is branded sunnylife. I thought F-stop themselves made them. I didn't see chargers for other Mavic models.

I just sent you an email regarding this also. I purchased on 9/27 and received the 3 battery one 10/3. And it seems the 10% discount isn't available for this item!

Drone Valley has the 6 in 1 Sunnylife for $50 shipped in USA

DJI Mavic 2 - 6-in-1 Home Charger

Short review on the unit -

Some slightly cheaper options on ebay etc

 

[DanMan32]

I saw that, but didn't connect SunnyLife with F-stop. The comments on this topic suggests F-stop is the manufacturer and not just a reseller, so I found it strange they'd put generic brands on their product. Even if the product is made well, I'd rather deal with a brand I can contact for something like this.

 

[mavicn00b]

I use Paypal/eBay for any post-sales issues if the seller doesnt want to play ball.

This charger gets really HOT, 146 deg F during full load, ie 3 Mavic 2 batteries + RC + 10" Samsung tablet. Too hot to touch. Worst is that it starts to cycle on/off during charging of the batteries. It's overheating, unsafe and bad for the batteries.

I also have the same charger for my Mavic Pro, it does get hot but not this hot and it's not cycling on/off on the batteries.
na.

Received the “new & improved” version of Fstop Labs Mavic 2 Battery Charger.

Good news is that this newer version doesn’t have the overheating problem nor does it cycle on/off during charging.

Here are the not so good news: It still gets hot, 120 deg F (vs. 146 deg F). They reduced the charging amperage to solve the overheating problem. The MP2 charging went from 4.5A to 4.0A (11% reduction), the USB charging went from 2A to 1A (50% reduction).

The load is same as last time: 3 Mavic 2 batteries + RC + 10" Samsung tablet
