Hello fellow mini-se owners. I am waiting for my drone to arrive and just finished reading the user manual for the drone as well as the 2-way charging block. After reading these manuals, I have some thoughts and questions about charging.
Two-way Charging Hub (up to three batteries):
- The manual for this device states: "use a DJI 18W USB Charger or an FCC/CE-cerfified USB charger that supports Quick Charge or USB Power Delivery protocol."
Charging via the drone (single battery):
- On page 22, the user manual makes it clear that you should use a QC 2.0 charger when plugged into the drone itself
- Following that there is a "Tip" about using the 18W DJI charger
Knowing that QC 3.0 chargers/wall warts are available with 18W maximum outputs and are backwards compatible with QC 2.0 standards, is it safe to assume that any QC 3.0 charger with a maximum of 18W output will safely charge the single battery? I know DJI recommends purchaing their wall wart for charging, but my question still stands.
Remote Controller Charging:
- On page 26, the user maual states a Micro USB cable should be used for charging
- There is no mention of what type of charger (meaning voltage/amperage/wattage) should be used
I'm curious, what is the output rating of the wall wart you're using to chage your remote controller? Also, for those that purchased the official DJI wall wart/charger, are you using it to charge your remote controller as well?
Thanks for reading and I look forward to hearing from others. Hopefully I'm not the only one that over thinks these types of things.

Edit:
After posting this I went back and looked at the two-way charging hub manual again. The very first sentance in the introduction section reads: "The DJI Mini 2 Two-Way Charging Hub is designed both to charge Intelligent Flight Batteries connected to the battery ports and eternal devices such as a DJI Mini 2 Remote Controller, smartphones, or tablets connected to the USB port."
Armed with that statement I looked up the output rating of the charging hub: 5V at 2A
Since it is stated that the charging hub can charge the remote controller, is it safe to assume when using a wall wart instead, it should have the same output rating of 5V at 2A?
