dont get the super brain they are junk. get a integy charger they are some of the best and the best tech around life time. 16x7 is what i use it is equal to about a 300 dallar charger. they also have pritty good batteries

[eric113]

are the DuraTrax IntelliPeak's any good ?

[skyjacker_rc_club]

how much do you want to spend?

[RcRock-Guru]

The duratrax intelli peaks are ok. Alot better then the super brain. The newer duratrax pirahna charger works pretty good. But it's best when ran of of a power supply so you can charge your batts at up to 5 amps. The integy chargers are all really good. The make a more affordable one that I think is the 16x4.

no more then 200

[skyjacker_rc_club]

the pirraha charger is good with the power supply. and you arent racing so you will not need all the extras that the integy has.

[DirkDigler]

I just got the pirhanna and it work great.
The Intellipeak sucks.
I think the "peak" in Initellipeak stands for False Peak.

Hmmmm.....IntelliFalsepeak Chargers.....that's what they should call them!!!

I use:
4 6 cell Trinity 3000mah packs
2 6 cell Orion 2400mah packs
1 7 cell Balistic hand built 3300mah pack
1 5 cell Sanyo hand built 3300mah pack

[skyjacker_rc_club]

never mind get a 16x4 much better quality.

[RcRock-Guru]

If you are willing to dish out close to 200 bucks then I would get a 16x7. You can usually pick one up off of ebay for about 150-160. Or just get the 16x4 for about 100 bucks. The only main difference is that the 16x4 cant discharge at 20 amps like the 16x7, or cycle your batteries. I hope this helps.

i HATE EBAY WITH A PASSION

[skyjacker_rc_club]

go here :o

[RcRock-Guru]

Well then you could always buy it directly from integy at http://integy.automated-shops.com/cg...35104282531.30

it's 199 bucks

[RcRock-Guru]

I just saw on their site their is a new 16x3 v6 for 139.99 that would be perfect. It can charge up to 6.5 A and can discharge at up to 10 A. Thats the one I would probably go with.

[Robshobbies]

I have an intellipeak deluxe charger, sometimes will false peak to early but never to late so its not a big deal.. Better then my last dynamite mega peak that I fried..

[Tuffguy]

I have a tekin b112c and I love it , but it depends on my batteries on whether or not it false peaks, lately it has been false peaking but I think it is my batteries, they are matched integy 2400s
