Same old question Im afraid,but I would appreciate all and many opinions (you too Red please) on what I should buy.I fly 1/4 and 1/3 scale mostly.I have three radios, and several electronic ignition gassers ,so I always seem to be charging something.
Im a zone director for our national association,so in season Im at an event out of town two or three times a month with one or another of my planes.
I have two wallwarts,and 1 accucycle which is showing signs of the inaccuracy disease I read so much about in this forum when I did a search yesterday.(listening A.M.Cross?)
I dont normally field charge,and dont necessarily need a fast charge feature.I do want to be able to cycle my packs and keep track of their performance as they age.
One unit to do all above is best but I will consider seperate chargers and cyclers if the wisdom here says thats the way to go.
I have been flying since the late 60s,and have never lost a plane to battery failure,and I dont want to start now!
By the way Im electronicly semi literate at best so please keep it simple

Thank You Brothers......

Kevin,

Take a look at [url]www.rc-direct.com[/url] ,and look at the Schulze model ISL 300. I've owned quite a few in my time, and this one is by far the best. It's come down in price, making it an even better buy! Have good one Jim

Super turbo!!! I haven't had mine long, but so far it is great. Charges every thing I own and cycles too.

If you can get a hold of one.......try the Alpha 4. I have also heard very good things about the Sirius chargers. The Alpha will charge 4 packs at once and the Sirius chargers will do 2.
