Does anyone use this charger for their P3? I just bought it on clearance at best buy and I'm not sure about it. Anyone have any thoughts or suggestions? 5 batteries take too long to charge one by one!

I have four intelligent flight batteries for my Phantom 3 Pro'. To make my charging sessions easier, I bought a second @DJI 100w charger.
It accomplishes my goals in 1/2 the time. I can safely charge a flight battery and my RC together. Or top up two flight batteries at once.

For me, that was the safest way to accomplish my flight battery charging.
Other wise it would have been one of those rather expensive smartpower multi charging units. ;-)

Yeah, I don't like all the exposed electronics and it gets a bit hot.  The batteries don't get too hot though and they do seem to charge at a good speed.

But yes, I'll be very careful with it.

I've seen those and for the price I'd be careful
You should use the DJI multi charger, or I had this one and it charges 3 at the same time.

About the price, yeah I've seen the $12 version of it, but this is the $40 digipower one from Best Buy.  Doesn't mean it's actually any better of course.  It actually looks the same as the cheaper ones.

I wouldn't mind the charging hub DJI sells but I don't want to pay $90 for a hub that charges only one at a time.

The suggestion you posted looks very good.  I'll look into it.  Thanks!

If Best Buy sells it then I would think at least you have some kind of recourse if it damages a battery.
But you would have to ask them.

I use the same battery charger and haven't had any issue, but I'm very careful.  I've numbered each battery and charge them the same way each time.
