well, finally down to two choices...

possibly hobbyking order (~$50 w/ 4 batteries)
Charger
Battery

or

hobbypartz order (~$65 w/ 4 batteries)
charger
battery

I was thinking about getting some brushless stuff as well since I got the go ahead on the charger/batteries from the wife, but not sure what rx/escs will work with stock losi.. and seems like a huge bump in price for just one of my vehicles (well, an additional $40 probably)

well i like the lightmax battery more cuz i have the 180 x3 the 180 are a little bigger then stock.

and for charger i like the hobbyking one smaller! allmost (micro)

I ended up doing the order from hobbypartz just because I've heard good thing about that charger (even if a little more). and batteries,meh, I just need anything other than stock

Cant go wrong with the Thunder AC6 !!
I charge everything under the sun with mine

Just for future reference, I have seen quite a few instances of that Accucel charger going up in flames. It is a possibility with any charger, but that model seems to be suspect.

I just have to learn how to charge lipo and such! rofl, always have used easy nimh/nicad

I was very close to getting that accucel, glad I didn't now!
