Charger Power Comparison C10000 vs C8000

Overview

• This video demonstrates a comparison between the DJI C8000 and C10000 chargers for drones, showcasing differences in charging speed based on amp draw.

• The C8000 has been in use for three seasons, while the C10000 is set for its inaugural season in 2024 in the U.S.

• Amp draw measurements show the C10000 pulling more power for faster charging compared to the C8000. 

• It is recommended to use a generator that has at least 12Kw running watts when using the C10000

Assumptions

• The demonstration involved charging two batteries simultaneously using both chargers.

• The amp measurements were taken on a 220-volt setup, not the standard 240-volt generator typically used in the field.

Testing Strategy

• In the field on a 240-volt generator, the C10000 is expected to pull over 15 amps per channel with a total amp draw of over 30 amps for faster charging, while the C8000 will have slightly less amp draw

• Viewers are encouraged to watch other videos for additional differences between the chargers and to reach out for inquiries or to purchase the C10000 charger.
