2 PowerBox-Systems − World Leaders in RC Power Supply Systems
Dear customer,
we are delighted that you have decided to purchase the PowerBox Sensor power
supply from our range.
We hope you have many hours of pleasure and great success with your Power-
Box Sensor.
Product description
The PowerBox Sensor provides genuine redundancy in the power supply system,
and is in no way inferior to its big brothers in terms of security, as it features
two integral, completely independent regulatory and switching systems. Other
comparable products available commercially boast of duplication, but this always
simply refers to the number of batteries connected to the system. Our backer
is actually fitted with two micro-controllers, two regulatory circuits, two switch
circuits and a dual voltage monitoring circuit.
In order to be able to use modern battery types such as LiPo/LiIon and LiFePo,
the two integral regulators reduce the battery voltage to 5.9 V, which is the correct
value for 6 V servos. The unit is also a good choice for capping the voltage of 5S
NiMH packs at 5.9 V, as the voltage of these batteries can be excessive when fully
charged. Regulating the voltage extends the useful life of the servos, and ensures
constant servo torque and transit speed - regardless of the state of charge of
the batteries.
Two tri-colour LEDs indicate the state of charge of the batteries in four stages.
The PowerBox also includes a minimum voltage memory which stores the lowest
