ICharger X6

:huh:I bought an ICharger X6 because of the Regenerative feature, that let me preserve the power I normally just dissipate as heat.

However, it seems that Banggod does not sell the genuine ICharger but a cheap copy without the ability to select regenerative discharging.

I may do something wrong, but I am not ready to admit that, just yet.

Manual shows that You can choose between Battery and Power Supply.

Here is what I get:





not much to choose from.

Any ideas?

You can select DC Power Supply or Battery Power Source during startup as shown on page 8 in the manual. You have to select Battery Power Source to unlock regenerative modes.

It should look like this according to the manual. And it does look like that on my iCharger which is a different model but they all seem to run the same GUI.





If that means that you got some sort of clone, I don't know. It's weird though because you're not only getting a unexpected menu, it's also presenting four options that are all the same.

This video explains how to set up the charger for regenerative mode. It's disabled by default.

Thanks Mike.

This video reviels the "secret" keypress, menu that the manual does not show.

Wonder why they do not update the manual when they alter the software.

However, now it works.

Thanks again
