Dependable charging with the Futaba CR-2000

The Futaba CR-2000 DC Peak Charger is a solid pick for RC hobbyists needing consistent charging for NiCD and NiMH batteries. Its peak detection and automatic cut-off help prevent overcharge and keep packs in good condition.

Display and monitoring features

This unit includes an LCD that shows input and output voltage, charge current, peak voltage, elapsed charge time, and the total charge delivered. That live feedback is useful when you want to watch the battery as it charges.

Included leads and adapters

The Futaba CR-2000 ships with a 12V battery charger and cigarette lighter adapter, alligator clips, a 28" transmitter charge lead, plus two receiver adapter leads at 20" and 80". Those leads make it straightforward to hook up transmitters, receivers, and other small packs.

Power needs and setup

To run the CR-2000 you need an 11-15V DC source capable of supplying at least 6A. Meeting that requirement ensures the charger can deliver its rated currents and operate without voltage sag.

No. This charger is built for NiCD and NiMH chemistry only. Using it on LiPo packs is not advised and could be unsafe.
Use an 11-15V DC supply rated for at least 6A, such as a dedicated lead-acid or high-current DC power pack or a car accessory outlet with appropriate adapter.
