Default Thunder AC6 charger

I am looking at getting a Lipo charger and the thunder ac6 is looking pretty good. Is there anything that im missing? its 55 bucks but has the same features as the hyperion ac/dc charger that costs 149 bucks.

This will be my first step into lipo's and ill prolly go to maxamps for the batteries unless someone has another idea.

Thanks for the help.

Make sure you get align taps on the maxamps or an adapter.

Max charge rate is 5a so it takes a while if you're charging anything over 5000mah. The hyp is only 6a though...

I bought one and love it. I think it's well worth the $55 price tag.

Yeah I just got mine 2 weeks ago and works awesome! I'm only charging Nimh and Nicds with it right now and have tested it with a reliable meter. It was out +/- 0.07 volts good for nicds and nimh. It's great for cycling and have brought a couple nicds back to life. For $55 it's a great charger with deans connectors included.

Was referring to the part where top said he was thinking about buying maxamps packs...and to get them with align/eflite balance taps so top wouldn't have to use an adapter.
