So I am wondering if this is a good charger? I am selling my mrc 989 chargers as I do not seem to use them much and hate to see them collect dust. I have 4 of the old 5i 50watt hyperions and they get used quite a bit for the small crawler packs and single cell charging when making/fixing packs.

I will need a 6s capable charger, and was looking at the 610i, they are cheaper now as the 720i seems to be replacing them. Should I go with the 610i or pony up another 50 bucks for a 720i? That is 25% more for something I dout I will ever use. I also have no real need for more than 2c charge rates...

They are both 250watt maxx chargers, and I never see me using a 7s single pack, it would be a 3s and 4s pack... I do have a pair of Ice chargers and use them to do my larger mah up to 4s packs. Plus I like the built in balancer and the accessible data from that balancer.

Also, will an ofna 18amp Ps be enough for 250 watts? 12v at 18 amps is 216watts, but i can turn the input up to 14v or so... Not that I will be charging at 250 watts. My largest pack right now is a 6000 6s pack, so 6amps at 25v which is 150 watts. (no losses figured into those numbers)

Any ideas or input from 610i users (or anyone else) will be greatly appreciated!
