I have one, in the same colour too. It's glorious, be it just a mug :)

Me three but mine is black.

Also I got this yesterday, for no real reason other than slight amusement.

Battery charger, nice to see detailed info on internal resistance, charge rates and be able to grade the batteries to determine if it's time to bin them. The Nitecore i4 this replaces is great, but it lacks the smart features and isn't USB powered. The Storage mode is cool too, allows to charge batteries specifically for long term storage which is ideal.

i have always loved the features of the xtar chargers but they never seem to last very long with me. About a year and they always pack in and go wrong so I have gone with a different brand this time around.

Which models went bust for you and what did you change to?

I've just seen they do a USB-C one for my DSLR batteries too: https://www.xtar.cc/product/XTAR-VN2-Camera-Battery-Charger-146.html so with that bought all my charging needs are done via USB now :cool:

VC4s - Both of them were I think.

Anyway I just checked and I didnt swap to a different brand, although I can remember thinking I should and I got the VP4 Dragon Plus :o

Guess the features for the money just couldnt make me move away to a different brand lol
 
Didn't know of the Dragon and looked it up, looks quite immense for the price! Will keep an eye on the VC4S though, it has 24 months warranty and I'm using a Spigen QC3 charger so hopefully this is reliable enough to keep it running properly.

Yeah I have so many different types of rechargeable batteries now it seems to make sense plus I can test them and also fully discharge them etc.

Also comes with a cigarette lighter charger.
 
Some plasterboard and pollyfiller for some small repairs and storage boxes for, well, storage and a battery for my cadence sensor ...

Then just browsing the aisles I came across this and for £23 just had to buy :D

Hopefully I get no issues with this down the line, if I do I will go back to Nitecore and I see they released a UMS4 model which is similar to the VC4S so at least I know they do an equivelant model although it's 20 quid more expensive.

You reminded me I need a new 3mm drill bit as the steel in my car kind of snapped it lol.

I've had the same for about 18 months now, my dogs have a mixed reaction to it. One runs away from it, younger pup attacks it (she's managed to remove the dust collection tray before now while it was running, and I found one of the side brushes in the garden!). It does a good job provided your floor is clutter-free, but it's not too smart and does get itself trapped in certain situations. It tries to eat dog toys (and chokes on them) and any kibble it picks up make it sound like a machine gun as it trundles around. You need plenty of spare roller/side brushes and filters.

Our dog is a bit wary of it but it doesn't bother her too much. I got sick of hoovering every day after the rainy dog walks, as we take her over several fields she gets quite muddy and it ends up as a sort of fine, dark sand on the floor which doesn't feel nice under your slippers. Got this running once a day and the difference is huge.

Have noticed it's not too smart, it does go all over the place but as we have a small house at the moment it pretty much does the whole ground floor in about 10 mins which is good.

It does get stuck on the cables at the back/under the TV unit, my plan is to put the docking station under there so that it avoids the wires. Also then it'll be unseen when not in use, I just need to free up a socket first.
