I was an R/C dad not so long ago, Grelland, and I understand. Paul and I started with NiMh 2000 packs and only had one charger to start with. It ran continuously, and the one-charger thing did not last long...

30-A Rivergate power supply and two Novak Millenniums could barely keep up with it. The Rivergate ran the comm lathe, a fan large enough to cool two charging packs, and a dyno too. It was Paul's power supply until it finally died about six months ago. We bought it used and it worked its wazoo off for us for more than 10 years. Think I paid $75. What a bargain!

If we had had LiPo & brushless, I would have had more time to go get lunch!
