Freefly Astro Max SL8 Fast Charger
Freefly SL8 Fast Charger is a high-efficiency 200 W charging system engineered for the Astro Max's SL8-Air smart batteries. Designed for rapid turnaround and field reliability, it fully recharges an SL8 battery in about 90 minutes. Compact, lightweight, and travel-ready, the SL8 Fast Charger keeps operations running with minimal downtime in demanding industrial, mapping, or inspection missions.
Fast, safe charging in the field
With universal 100-240 V AC input, the SL8 Fast Charger automatically detects voltage and optimizes charge cycles for safety and efficiency. Built-in thermal protection and intelligent current management safeguard both charger and battery. Because the SL8 Air features an integrated BMS, no balance connectors are required-simplifying setup and minimizing user error.
Compact design for operational efficiency
Purpose-built for enterprise teams, the SL8 Fast Charger ships with a North American power cable and supports easy transport between job sites. Its durable casing withstands frequent handling and travel, while status indicators provide real-time feedback on charge progress. Dependable and field-proven, it's the essential companion for maintaining continuous drone readiness.
