Performance and reliability of Anton Bauer Titan TWQ and Titan Twin battery chargers
21 years old. Gear and prices may have changed since.
What the thread found
- The Titan TWQ 4-port charger can charge four batteries simultaneously to full capacity in approximately 1.25 hours when used with Trimpac batteries.
- One user reported that a Titan Twin charger developed an internal circuit failure after two years of use.
- A Titan Twin charger that initially performed well began shutting down after three to four minutes of charging operation, requiring manual restart to resume charging.
Depends on
- The report of overheating was acknowledged as potentially related to the battery condition rather than charger malfunction.
- The reliability issue was reported from a unit purchased two years prior, making it unclear if current production models have the same problem.
- The charging time observation is specific to Trimpac batteries and may vary with other battery types.
- The user experiencing charging shutdowns had purchased the charger two years before reporting the issue, limiting applicability to current models.
