Well, I'll admit that I've never had first-hand experience with a Hyperion charger, but I'm fully aware that they're excellent; I'm not denying that. The 960SR does have some features that the 0610i doesn't, though, like the ability to charge and balance up to 12S Lithium packs in one go (or two 6S packs, etc); the Hyperion can only manage 6S. The Duo can do 12S, but at a higher price. The 960 can also display various realtime graphs on its graphic display, which is useful for checking on the pack's charge, discharve or temp curves. It also has a second separate output for charging Nickel transmitter/receiver packs, amongst other minor things.

It's difficult to actually find a decent full spec list (google it...you'll find lots of info), but it's a very fine charger. I know the 180W output seems low next to the Hyperions, but it's still a big chunk of power.

And the price, in comparison, is fantastic IMO. It's just a suggestion anyway; The 0610i is still a great choice.
