The Tamiya 42135 VG Fast Charger is a solid workshop charger for those who need multi chemistry support with adjustable rates and temperature monitoring. It helps manage battery care across different RC models.

Match the charge current to the pack capacity and manufacturer recommendations. Lower currents are safer for long term health while higher currents reduce charge time but require careful monitoring.
The unit uses an IC controlled single fan to manage temperature during operation. It engages as needed based on internal temperature control.
Inspect connectors and wiring for damage, confirm the chemistry and cell count, and attach the temperature probe for higher current charges. Start with conservative settings if unsure.
Use the charger to discharge or adjust pack voltage within supported modes for storage, following manufacturer guidance on storage voltage for each chemistry.
