Default Charger/Balancer advice for a LIPO Noob

Hey all, I going to show some of my LIPO ignorance...hopefully someday I'll get this stuff down Ive been away from battery RC for quite a few years and have not kept up with the batterry technology at all.

I'll be in the market for a good quality, safe to use, multi battery(2 to 4) charger. Will need to be either AC 110v or AC/DC. Obviously for Lipo and most likely Life batteries. Also needs to be balancing type...I would guess most are already.

My budget is @ $75-$150. Id like to stay towards the $75 side, but Im open to suggestions if I have to spend more for a better one.


I guess I would like to have the flexability to charge 2S to 6S and upwards of 8k-9k mah.

None of my requirements are set in stone...so I I have to go over $150 a little, thats okay.

Thanks, any insight is appriciated.

Check the chargers on hobbying. Some that easily match your requirements- for the budget watch out as you may need a power supply for some.
Think their IMAX ticks all of your boxes?!.....
