I need a fast field charger for large packs. Im considering either the supernova or the superturbo. The problem is, from reading posts here. Some people complain the unit isnt square and sits funny and the buttons are going out on new Superturbo's. Others are saying the Supernova does not give as full a charge as the SuperTurbo and doesnt give as accurate of a discharge reading. I really dont want to spend over 150 dollars and I want a unit that will fast charge and cycle the large packs at the field. The Superturbo as a couple of features not present on the SuperNova. I would prefer a charger that can charge 1 to 20 cells or more.

So how do you decide.

There is nothing worse than a charger that is not accurate or consistent. I would rather use my slow Sirius Pro at the field than get into problems with a charger that is not performing as expected.

Any Suggestions

Thanks.

I decided to get a Superturbo...............I ordered it from RcAccessory which has a nice deal on one right now. They also some other items at a good price. They are throwing in some rx tx banana connection cables for free. I will keep you posted on my experience with the SuperTurbo.

Keep us updated. I am in exactly the same position right now but leaning towards the SuperNova, but only because it is tried and true and been around for a while. I am starting to hear a few complaints about the SuperTurbo just like you have which has made me a little wary.
