Nitecore UMS4 Intelligent Battery Charger Review!
Ойын-сауық
**I found this uploaded but never published video review from Feb. 4, 2019. I really can't say what happened for I put out a lot of videos in that week and maybe slipped passed me somehow. Enjoy.
Here is the newest USB powered charger from Nitecore with their UMS4. This is a feature packed intelligent charger. This works like a quick charger is a USB 3.0 or 3.1 power supply is used. The LCD display looks great and easy to read. The display is bright and clear. The fireproof housing makes this safe when charging your batteries unattended. This also features ohms resistance testing which is important specially for older cells. This USB is ideal for solar power charging or power bank charging. The build quality is top notch.

Great review, Charles! I discovered that cleaning the battery terminals with isopropyl alcohol wipes and reseating the battery a few times can sometimes improve the indicated internal resistance from "Poor" to "Good". It seems that the charger also takes into account the conductivity of the battery's contact points and not just its actual internal resistance. This has saved me from discarding a few old NiMH batteries prematurely. I don't have the UMS4 but the slightly older Nitecore UM4 charger but I should think the UMS4 may also give out inaccurate Ohms readings if the battery isn't seated optimally.

Contact issue. Clean the battery ends a bit and the resistance will be lower. Try re-seating a couple of times, it will show different values, depending on the contact it makes with the sliders.

I just got mine and it works great, but I have an issue; when I put 2 matched batteries in slots 1 and 2, it will look like its charging for a second or so, then the charger will reset and attempt to charge again. However, if I do S1 and S3, it has no issues. Maybe it's made that way? Anyhow thank you for this review, have a great weekend. Edit: put said pair in 3 and 4 with other cells in 1 and 2 and its fine now. Kinda weird, but its all good. Still kinda weird that happened.

My UMS2 cooks the Eneloop Pro AA 2500 mAh at 1000 mA charge rate (which I set manually instead of the 500 mA default). It terminates way too late at around 2800-2900 mAh charged capacity and gets the batteries hot very quickly after it passes the 2500 mAh value. Should I perhaps try to charge them at a lower rate, let's say 700 mA? 500 mA might miss the charge termination.

At this early stage of using it I'm finding it quite inconsistant, I can put an already fully charged battery and it charges it for 30min to FULL, then I take it out and put it back in and it charges for another 30min. Also, a battery is in and it says 94 Om Resistance, I take it out and put it back it says 400 Om Res, do it again, its 200. Will test with others.

These gumstick batteries have a rated capacity of 1,450mAh and says "Fast charge current = 290mA". I cannot find a suitable charger for these old style gumstick batteries so I am wondering if I could use this USM4 unit which seems perfect, IF they would fit and charge them at the around 300mA. These Ni-Mh batteries and originally the gumsticks were Ni-Cd ones. Hard to find good Ni-Mh ones even now. Cheers and I Love your channel. Liked and subscribed promptly!

No, the ISDT C4 EVO only charges AA and AAA or only two 18650 sized cells. Check out the XTAR VC4 or Nitecore i4 or D4 chargers. Thanks for watching!
