Hello at all.

I am thinking about purchasing a Crystalsky for my Mavic Air. As the charger is to buy on top, which one is the best to choose? The DJI website shows a list of compatible options. What is your preferation and why? Which one is the best one for a fast recharge of the batteries?

Thanks, DB

I use a DJI Phantom 4 charger. Bought it off eBay brand new for $30. I don't think any of the recommended chargers will charge any faster than another. But you have to have a charger that will supply enough current which is why only certain chargers will work.

I use this one from Amazon.

Thank you for the tip and info.

This is also interesting!  I use a portable battery charger from Smatree. Have to look if it is available in Europe.
Thanks.

Edit: the cost will be around 50.00 $ incl. shipping, nearly 47.00 €

I'm in Sweden and I bought a used original DJI Inspire 1 100W charger with AC cable from Germany, 39€ + 13€ Shipping at dronivo.eu (Germany). Maybe you could try there?

Thank you for the tip, I will take a look there.
Btw, you are using the large 7.5" CS? Isn't it to heavy? How is the handling/performance?

I use this power supply for charging CrystalSky Ultra battery.
Osmo - 57W Power Adapter PART 68

I wish DJI made a power supply that would work with CrystalSky charging hub, Mavic Pro charging hub, and have USB power plug for charging Remote Control.  Alas, with Mavic Pro you got to carry to power supplies.

i went through the list and searched ebay .... picked a phantom 3 one one up for £25.... However the crstalsky is just gathering dust until its made compatible with the mavic 2

I really like it, it's not that havy, and you could also use a neckstrap. In transport the CS fit really snug in outer pocket of the fly more combo bag without the battery. The Mavemount 3 bracket and the battery goes in the bag. I used a iPhone 5S earlier and could not see the screen, now there is no problem at all, not even in direct sunlight. The Mavmount 3 is very steady. Performance has been great so far... Exept for the jumping compass in the radarscreen on the CS.

What do you mean with "jumping compass"? Sounds like a strange behaviour?

Yes, one charger for all would be nice! Need an extra bag for all the charging hubs, DSLR, GoPro, phone, Mavic +++

I am sure, support will come... when? I think, earlier as new firmware for MA ;)

I'd get the Inspire 1 180w charger and power cable - this will charge the CrystalSky battery the fastest.

*The 57W battery charger does not supply enough power to charge batteries and other devices connected to the USB port simultaneously. DO NOT use the USB port to charge another device when charging batteries.

There is the fastest charger marked??? Realy? Thanks again.

The "jumping compass" issue sounds a little bit irritating for me, hm.

Not officially marker but the larger the charger, the quicker the charge time. 180w is DJI's largest listed for CrystalSky. Each of my TB batteries for the Inspire 1 charge 30 minutes quicker using the 180w charger Vs. 100w - that's why it is known as the 'rapid' charger...

Hey guys. I just bought the mavic pro 2 zoom and the crystal sky 7.85 inch top spec screen. I was totally shocked to find out it didn’t include a charging cable. At no point throughout the ordering process was I made aware that this was the case. I am totally p#ssed off. I contacted DJI support today by phone and was told “any 100 volt charger will work” - I mean am I hearing this ? I have just spent the best part of 3k euros on a new drone and screen and I can’t use it and to add salt to the wound I can’t get any clear information off DJI support about exactly where I can get one or what type to get. I was told that the mavic 2 zoom and the screen combination requires a special charger. Can someone please advise me where to get a charging cable ...please ...
I am so annoyed about this - and the support I am getting from DJI is atrocious frankly . I forgot to mention that I had just gone through the process of returning a mavic pro 2 a few weeks ago as it had an issue! Not happy at all
