Title: Nitecore UHX1 Pro vs Hasselblad Battery Charging Hub review
Post by: Vieri Bottazzini on September 10, 2019, 02:20:59 pm
Ladies and gentlemen, I have put together a blog page with my compared review of Nitecore UHX1 Pro dual battery charger for the Hasselblad X1D versus Hasselblad's own Battery Charging Hub. The page is here:

https://www.vieribottazzini.com/2019/09/nitecore-hasselblad-x1d-dual-charger-review.html (https://www.vieribottazzini.com/2019/09/nitecore-hasselblad-x1d-dual-charger-review.html)

In short, while following a completely different building and operational philosophy both chargers are working very well, and they are an extremely welcomed add to the roster of accessories for the Hasselblad X1D system. Looking forward to your thoughts and comments. Best regards,

Vieri

Thank you for the heads up Bob! I am sorry about that, not sure why it didn't work but it's now fixed :) Thanks again!

Best regards,

Thanks for the review.
I am looking at getting the Hasselblad charger but will probably need to get it from overseas. Is the USB charger multi voltage and does it come with a selection of plug types like the H series chargers please?

Hello Bob, you are welcome :) As far as your questions: "As the Nitecore UHX1 Pro, the Hasselblad Battery Charging Hub also features a normal mode and a quick charging mode. Please note that only newer, 3400 mAh batteries support quick charging, according to Hasselblad’s website. The charger will choose charging mode according to the power source connected (5V for normal, 9V for quick) and the battery used.", and no, mine came with just one plug, which is actually built-in the USB power adaptor, and no selection of plug adapters.

However, since the charger is USB based, you can basically use any USB charger you own :)

Best regards,

Vieri

Thanks, but will the plug pack work 110V and 240V. I can use an adapter for the pins.

Hello Bob,

oh, you meant multi-voltage in, not out :) Sorry about that! Yes, mine is, 110-240V. Hope this helps, best regards
