| Venom pro charger??????
I picked up a Venom pro charger ultimate at my lhs today. Anyone have any experience or knowledge of this one. The owner said it was a brand new model and he hadn't even opened one up yet. This is the link http://www.venom-group.com/itemdesc.asp?ic=0665 |

We have 2 Pro Chargers, likely the "ultimate" only has some additional features. What do you want to know?? Do you have the manual for it? If not, you can get from the Venom website. |

just trying to get some other opinions, I'm sort of in the stone age with batterys and chargers. i still run nicd/nimh and charge with a duratrax intellipeak twin pulse. Just trying to upgrade to be able to start in the lipo arena. I haven't opened it up yet, if its not that good I can still take it back for something else.

Menu & specs look similar to my ProCharger. Mine, which cost more, has the adapter kit with it as well as the 110VAC power supply so I can charge from the wall or a DC power supply (like a car battery when at a comp). For ~$50, looks decent. One positive is that any issues (only a 30 day warranty though) are handled here in the US. |

paid $80.00 for mine. nothing special but supporting local i guess. The owner said it was his most powerful charger, and they had some $200 plus name brands. I don't know maybe it'll do good.

I have been using mine for over a year now with no problems, I use it to charge Lipo and Nihm . It has been super easy to use .
