Technoline BL700 charger

It's not often I get stuff that exceeds my expectations but this clever little rascal is absolutely fab.  I've got dozens of Eneloops in remotes, toothbrushes, micro heli TXs, camera flashes etc etc. and the wall chargers just seem to simmer the poor little suckers into submission.  

Whereas the Technoline BL700 charges them individually at up to 700 mAh, it'll cycle them until it finds their max capacity, it'll discharge and it tell you how much it's put in each cell.  Plus you can do any of that to each cell individually at the same time.

I've already been through dozens of cells bringing their capacity back up to scratch again.  Best £30 I've spent in a while!

Fosa

She's on her way soon....

Voltij

My Voltij is coming out to play on a trip to Lands End soon.  Just thought I'd remind myself what to do with it...

Welsh Winter League 2 - 10/11

• 10 to 15mph on the Wrecker, with a hint of easterly.  
• Some variability but generally pretty stable throughout the 12 rounds.  
• Flying two up with crow through. 
• Great to see Mark Southall back.
• Lots of pumping to gain height, none of which was particularly effective but it was great fun!
• When the wind shifted more to the east I finished up flying all French at Base B, which seemed to work pretty well but it's of course impossible to know what time you'd have had using a more orthodox technique.  There was a definite kick there though.
• The standard of flying was really high.  
• Particular mention has to be made of Clayton.  If we had a best newcomer award he'd be a shoo-in. And not just because he's the only newcomer!
• All in all one of those days where you struggle to get out of bed but end up so glad that you made the effort.
