Great thanks for the information. I will be using 2s and 3s batteries, so I hope it works good for me

Thanks

My question is, it says in the description that this charger does not come with a deans connector, so those of you that have this charger, what are you doing to charge your LiPo batteries with deans connectors on them? Do you just use the alligator clips and connect them to your battery, or do you cut one of the other leads and solder on a deans connector?

Thanks

i took off the huge branch of connectors, and used that main wire to solder on Deans..

with the others, i just soldered on 4mm bullets and soldered on Traxxas since i use that plug in another crawler. the other i just kept.

Do you have a pic of this so I can get a visual idea of what you did.

Thanks

Hate to bump something this old but... what would you guys say is the best LIPO charger 'now'?

Original thread is from 2011 but with it being 2017 - I'm sure a few new ones have came out.
