Im stuck as what to get now aswell. Why would anybody want to charge at 20A anyway Damo?? Maybe i didnt undersatand your post  |
As the new lipos can be charged at upto 5c why have a charger that uses the same internals as something thats been out for 2 year when everything else has moved on. The better chargers are ALOT more accurate so why pay £60 + for lipos then charge them with an inaccurate charger ? On one of the US forums a guy tested the cheaper "balance chargers" and they were quite a bit out even though the charger said each cell was 4.19v some were actually 4.14v up to 4.23v. I remember years ago no one would be racing cometitivly with cheap inaccurate chargers so why do it now ? I remember paying over £100 for good chargers 15 year ago.
And why would you want to charge 4 lipos together anyway ? also the thing is huge.
Buy a good future proof charger that is capable of more than you need it to do and you will not go wrong,
Here you go 1000w 30a charge (a bit over the top though)
