Charger - 04.21.2009, 11:37 AM

What is a good charger that is AC, will charge lipos, and has a balancer? My buddy bought a slash so it only really need to charge up to 3s but 4s would be nice to.. It could be a DC if there is a cheap power supply.. I was looking at the Duratrax and Turnigy but I am not sure this is the best bang for the buck.. any ideas?

i'm absolutely in love with my hyperion EOS0610I charger. the only thing that could make it better would be if it were the duo...but i can't justify nearly twice the price.

Hyperion 0606i, AC/DC a little expensive compared to the imports you mentioned, but a reliable charger with a good track record. The Venom Pros are having probs, 2nd rash of probs I've read about. I wouldn't get that one.

Onyx has no balancer, so you'd need separate balancer. Turnigy Accucell-6 is DC, would need PS. That would turn out cheaper if you are willing to wait a couple of weeks for int'l delivery.

The 0606i is out of your budget range unfortunately.

For that price I know a guy (very close to me) that could sell you a 5i hyperion, lba6 balancer and a power supply...
