Has anyone purchased the team Orion advantage touch charger yet and if so what's your view on it,

Thanks for any info or mini reviews,

I have one. It's very good. Does all you'll need from a charger. Very simple to use and good value.

I got one. I had an Orion Advantage Clubman before.
The touch is so easy to use, its compact (+ no external PSU required yay!), lightweight, reasonably quiet...although well made with two fans in the back.

The only downsides for me were there length of the power cable which for me was a bit short, but I have since replaced it. Also, you have to take more care when transporting it since Id hate to damage the lovely screen on it. I basically just use the box it came in, which is pretty sturdy, and wrap the Touch unit in cotton wrags before I put it in the box.

Totally glad I bought it though

I'd never want to go back to an old style charger.

Hey any other users of the Orion Touch I have a question for you. How do you trickle charge? I have activated the trickle in the sub menu but what now????
Ive got a patch lead to charge my Spectrum transmitter and would like to trickle it.

Do you have to use a additional balance board to balance cells? or does it do it internally like the LRP/Nosram (the big charger)

[Matt Butcher]

it uses an additional balance board (which is included). Its a great charger, charges upto 6amps.

Is it worth the extra cash over a standard charger if so what are the benefits?
