What do you have?

Do you like it?

Was it worth the money?

Status: online 		I would personally contact David at Progressive RC.  He sells FMA and Icharger (what I bought).  He can steer you in the right direction for what your charging needs and budget allow.

If you need to get a power supply jrplane (on rcgroup) and others sell some great computer server supplies ready to go that work great for powering your charger on your bench.

Good luck.

Several of our club members have the HK 8150 and they all like theirs.  I think buying from the USA the cost is about 47.00  Take a look at it.
