The most important features:
- processor-controlled three-stage charging process TC/CC/CV,
- display showing the state of charge and charging current,
- automatically selected charging current 0.5A / 1A based on the length of the cell,
- powered by any micro USB charger or from a computer USB port (min. 0.5A),
- small dimensions - easy to carry,
- reactivation function of deeply discharged cells,
- protections: short-circuit, thermal, reverse polarity protection.

In the new version of the MC1 Plus model, Xtar introduced a very simple, but at the same time very functional LED display informing about the battery charging progress and charging current.

A fully professional processor charger with a three-stage TC/CC/CV charging process is hidden in a small housing.
Charges 3.6 / 3.7V Li-ion cells of any capacity in sizes 10440, 14500, 14650, 16340, 17500, 17670, 18350, 18500, 18650, 18700, 20700, 21700 - unprotected only, 22650, 25600, 2.

What is the TC/CC/CV charging method? It is a three-stage Li-ion cell charging process that ensures the cell is maintained in good condition by charging with the right current at each stage and ending the charging process at the right time.
The individual stages of the TC/CC/CV process are:
- TC phase: cells discharged below 2.9V are 'wake up' with a lower current.
- CC phase: after reaching 2.9V, the cell is charged with a constant current of 0.5A (batteries up to 54mm long) or 1A (batteries over 54mm long).
- CV phase: when the cell is almost fully charged, the charger switches to charging with decreasing current until reaching a voltage of 4.2V on the cell. After reaching 4.2V, the charging process is complete - the battery is fully charged.


Batteries with a voltage of 4.0V or higher are treated by the charger as charged. To fully charge such a battery, insert it into the charger before connecting it to the power supply. Charged batteries left in the charger will undergo a natural self-discharge process. Charging will resume when the battery voltage drops below 4.1V.

The Xtar ANT MC1 Plus charger has the function of reactivating deeply discharged cells and cells with a voltage of 0V. Many chargers on the market are not able to charge such batteries. This is where the Xtar ANT-MC1 Plus charger comes in handy, which in many cases allows you to 'rescue' such cells. Just insert a deeply discharged battery into the ANT-MC1 Plus charger, as with normal charging - the charger will detect a discharged cell and attempt to reactivate it.

Attention! Cells discharged below a certain level are irreparably damaged and may not be reactivated. Too deep discharge of Li-ion batteries should be avoided - this may lead to a significant decrease in their durability and capacity or lead to their complete inoperability.

Chargers from other manufacturers can significantly increase the temperature of the charged cells during charging. Excessive heating of the cells can cause their faster wear. When designing the ANT-MC1 Plus charger, Xtar went a step further than the competition, solving this problem in a simple way: an external power supply was used. Thanks to this, the temperature of the battery charged in the MC1 Plus will increase by no more than 15 degrees.

The Xtar ANT-MC1 Plus charger comes complete with a micro USB cable and a cover protecting the charger during transport.

The power supply is not included in the set. To power the charger, any charger with a micro USB cable, e.g. from a phone, or a USB socket or a computer with a free USB port is enough. The recommended minimum charger power is 1A (1000mA). It is possible to use a charger with less power, but in this case the charging time will be longer.
