Looks like they could have spent more money on the housing. But hopefully that will reflect on a lower price for the unit?

It looks VERY cool. Things I'm hoping for.
profile you can assign to all 4 slots.

Start Profile 1 (###mah charge to all 4 cells)
Start Profile 2 (###mah discharge to all 4 cells).
Start Profile 3 (1000mah discharge, 10 min rest, 500mah charge)

etc etc.

I love my maha in that it'll discharge and not start a charge cycle (something I wish the lacrosse would do). But having to set each of the 4 cells everytime is a PITA.

apart from seeing it being charged on your phone it looks quite similar to maha charger in terms of functionality, i may be wrong though... wondering how much it will cost.… any info on release date?

Yikes if it were an 8 cell model, maybe. well out of my price range for a 4 cell charger unfortunately. won't deny it look very interesting though.

If it can do internal resistance of each cell then it would be worth it.
