I've got the core charger. Seems fine for lipos and can charge up to 5 amps. Comes with a shed load of leads, most of which are useless and I had to buy a new one. One thing I don't like about it is how it charges NIMH, gets them way to hot, but won't be doing that much anymore so suppose it doesn't matter.

I have been using the Orion Clubman LIPO for month now,
i like it, had no problems.

Especially the single balancer ports for 2s and 3s make my desk
clean.

Since now i used 7,4V yeah racing 3200, LRP 5300 hardcase and
my VCS tranmitter pack with 11.1V 3000mah.

I payed 45€, there is no better buy, i think.

Not that I have noticed, does make a bit of noise when the fan cuts in but certainly wouldn't describe it as really noisey.
