Im selling this charger because When I'm charging 2200mah 3S battery its charging and its working fine. But when I'm charging 4200mah 3S battery the 12V dc adaptor gets heated up like anything. I think this charger is not meant to charge batteries that are rated high amps

I am using a 12v 5A charger works perfectly for 2200, 3300, 5000 and even 10000mah lipos
Use good adapters with high amp rating

I think arun.sreelakam is right. I checked with the adaptor I'm using is only 12V 1.5A. I think that is the root cause of my problem.

I should try it with the adaptor in the link

Thank you arun.sreelakam you saved my charger.

Operating voltage range: DC 11-18 Volts

Charge current range: 0.1-5.0A

19Volts means it exceeds the voltage range specified.
And it can vary from 0.1-5.0A

A stands for Amperes.

It is strictly advisable to use charger having max amperage 5 or more the 5.

You can use a laptop charger but The amp rating is below 3.5A For most of them..
Use a charger 12v is enough with 5A Rating Will best suits you for all kind of charging..
