lipo beginner

[87silverado]

I just picked up a redcat racing earthquake 8e off ebay pretty cheap. It comes with two 7.4V Batteries (20c 3200Mah 2s) but iti didnt come with a charger and these will be my first lipos. And theres more chargers out there then i can count and im kind of overwhelmed. I would like to charge them at the same time.

Not looking to break the bank but i dont want pure junk either.

The requirement that it charges both packs at once will run the price up on you.

Hyperion makes a nice charger that will do two at once. Hitec makes one that will charge 4 at once.

The Duratrax 245 in my opinion is the best charger for the money. It will do any pack up to 5amps, and 2 at a time.

+1 on this charger..i have one and like it alot..i can charge my lipos and my sons nimh packs at the same time..i mostly race and i like being able to charge 2 at a time in between heats and stuff..comes with different leads for traxxas plugs and deans and the tamiya style plugs..also comes with balance boards for different style balance plugs..great charger for the price, not hard to use

Great for a beginner rig, for a few runs. Suck after that.
