[COMPARE] Parkside X20V Team battery chargers

These two chargers were shipped with two pack of PARKSIDE PABS 20-Li E6 cordless hand drills.
The one I brought a year later, had the balanced battery pack and the C1 charger, otherwise both look very similar.

So here is a picture about the top side, nothing special just the facelifted C1 version on the left. The leds are behind some transparent plastic, IMHO that looks a little bit better.

The next one is from the bottom, the guys at the factory gave us two holes, which you can use to hang on the charger. Such a great idea!

You can see the circuit boards now, the C1 version might contain smallers parts. Some of the hole mounted capacitors have been changed to SMD ones. LGT695G LY758GX.

Both the chargers are using a LGT8P22A balancer/controller/protection(?) chip and a 4953 P-channel dual MOSFET. I haven’t found any data about the IC, I you do so please leave a message.

The power cables are the same Dinatong DNT-11, it’s a pretty flexible and good quality one.

The weight of the empty plastic housing are pretty much the same, they are 153g for the PLG20A1 and 151g for the PLG20C1!

Almost the same difference can be seen with the complete chargers too, 309 gramms for the PLG20A1 and 306 gramms for the PLG20C1.
