Default Best charger?

I have ordered a couple of small lipos for my LNC and now I need a charger. I used the search. I used Google. The number of opinions is astounding.

I want yours.

Here is what I would LIKE:

1) Can charge different types of batteries.
2) Can charge multiple batteries simultaneously
3) Is competitively priced


What do you think?

Thanks!

Well, it will be tough to find a cheaper charger that will charge multiple packs at once. However, I have been using the Hyperion EOS606I AC/DC charger for a few years with excellent results.

Hyperion does make a similar charger that will charge two packs....they call it the "DUO". Jason at Krawler Hobbies can probably get this for you, but I am not certain of the cost.

I am quite partial to the FMA chargers. They are very accurate, simple to use yet with tons of features, great customer service, and made in the USA.

If you don't already have one you will need a 12v power supply, don't skimp here either. A good server rack supply can be found at most electronics surplus stores and is easily modified for home use.

**I might have to take back the whole USA thing, looks like they might be moving manufacturing to Singapore.

ive been using the MRC super brain for years now believe its the 979, have had no problems with it. charges 2 batteries at once, but only can charge lipo on the A channel. There are alot of good chargers available now. A great budget charger is the onyx 230 from duratrax.
