I know of at least one other user here who is using A123 cells. I ran across another A123 capable charger while researching an eighth scale buggy conversion project.

FMA BalancePro HD 6S

It's a 6S 10A max charger (250W so 10A is possible with a 6S pack). The only downside is the need for a specialized/proprietary charging harness, potentially for each pack. The charger balances as it charges so there is no need for a separate balancer. It goes for $105 and the charge adapter/harnesses run $12.50 each. You might need a beefy power supply to run this thing full bore however.
