Default New Dual Charger Time

I am going to upgrade my charging ability. Currently., I am using an icharger 306B. It is a fine charger but it has only one output. I have a parallel board that I use for multiple batteries. I am not exactly sure that this is the best and safest way to charge multiple lipo packs. I know that many people do it this way, it just worries me about damaging packs or even worse of starting a fire.

I am thinking about getting a dual output charger. The two that I am looking at are the Hitec Power Peak D7 or an ICharger 308 duo. The Hitec has a built in AC power supply which is nice but as I already have a power supply it is not a definitive show stopper. Pricing is comparable on both but the hitec can be purchased off of sites with coupon codes, not so much for the iChargee. Does anybody on here have any advice, pro or con for either of these? I welcome any input.

On another note, is the search on this site broken?

Thank you.

Hitech all the way. Quality, good support, easy to use

Search here is weird, it works and it doesn't . Google search and set RCC.com as parameters, google will work

I've had the hitec x2 for 6 months and am very pleased. Easy to use and charges anything I have used it for.

The HITEC is very nice. I use one and also a Hyperion.
Look at the Hyperion as well.
They have a much more robust/durable feel to them and the user interface is very intuitive.

Hitec X2 AC Plus is a great charger, all you need without the junk you don't need, high output power and two batteries concurrently.

Hyperion was good years ago last I used them, but have not tried one lately.
