Premium Members Brian Freesh Posted February 4, 2010 Premium Members Report Share Posted February 4, 2010 Hi everyone, Was the Anton Bauer Lifesaver Dual Fast Charger made with both flat faces and angled faces? I thought they were angled, but in this picture it looks flat. Is this picture an optical illusion? Is my memory failing me? Or were they made both ways? How many licks does it take to get to the tootsie roll center of a tootsie pop? Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Members Ken Nguyen Posted February 4, 2010 Premium Members Report Share Posted February 4, 2010 The one I have at work has flat faces. Those Lifesavers in my pocket have donut shape :P Cheers, Ken Nguyen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Members Jess Haas SOC Posted February 4, 2010 Premium Members Report Share Posted February 4, 2010 Looks like a bit of an optical illusion to me. You can see at the bottom where the angled face flattens out and there is a flat strip where the lights are. You can also see the curved top edge. That is exactly like mine which indeed has an angled face. My lifesaver Q2 anc CPS-2 chargers on the other hand are plain old boxes with a flat face. On another note does anyone know which serial number Lifesaver Dual chargers can be updated to charge which batteries? Mine doesn't even want to charge new digital trim packs. It does old nicads just fine though. ~Jess Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Premium Members Brian Freesh Posted February 4, 2010 Author Premium Members Report Share Posted February 4, 2010 If I am to believe Jess and PM, the pictured charger has an angled face and I'm seeing it wrong. This is good! Thanks everyone! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Members Jess Haas SOC Posted February 4, 2010 Premium Members Report Share Posted February 4, 2010 Just for the record believing anything I say is a recipe for disaster :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Members Brian Freesh Posted February 23, 2010 Author Premium Members Report Share Posted February 23, 2010 can any of you fine gentlemen confirm that a four digit serial number is accurate for one of these chargers? Thanks! ETA: Nevermind, Paul Dudeck to the rescue! All their early chargers had S/N with 3, 4, or 5 digits Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter Mozingo Posted April 24, 2010 Report Share Posted April 24, 2010 I just bought one of these for $500 and have the AB Dionic-90 battery, but for some reason it won't charge completely. Any ideas? Is the Q2 not updated enough for the newer D90's? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David A. Wolf Posted April 29, 2010 Report Share Posted April 29, 2010 I have an angled faced Dual charger as well. I got the DDM module upgrade chip and it charges Dionics and Hytrons just fine. Check with Paul Dudeck to see if the flat faced model is up-gradeable. David Wolf Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David Wolf are you talking about the 2722 ? http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/280097-REG/Anton_Bauer_D2722_D_2722_Anton_Bauer_Dual.html or are you talking about the http://www.rule.com/products/212 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any ideas? Is the Q2 not updated enough for the newer D90's? Hi Peter, The Q2 is an older style charger and is not upgradeable for the Dionic series of batteries. It will charge ProPacs, Trimpacs and HyTRON's no problem though. Regards, Paul Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
