DuraTrax Tekin, Novak, Team Orion, etc are big in electric car racing. I often see these chargers at car races around the Chicago area. I fly Helis and have used Tekins for years; most of my friends have never owned one. For a few dollars more you can get a little more flexibility with the Super Turbo from "rc-dymond.com". Advantage with the DuraTrax is you can plug it into the wall, with the Super Turbo you'll have to buy a 12volt power supply.

Status: offline 		Hi jeepsrcool,
I'm looking for a new charger also.I'm pretty much brain dead about them,but if I read the description right the intellipeak won't do anything smaller than a sub-c battery, doesn't transmitters have "A" size batteries.Also it says that it only cycles down to 2 volts,I read somewhere that you need to cycle down to 1 volt,or just under 1 volt.Like I said I'm not an authority on this ,but maybe red or one of the other guys can clear this up for us....gottafly

Status: offline 		You can charge any size battery. Its discharging they say no smaller than sub c size because wiring on smaller packs is usually smaller gauge and at 2 amps discharge it could damage wiring. It recomends charging tx packs on trickle charge.As my tx pack say charge at 50 ma for 15 hrs or 180ma for 5 hours.. It does discharge at 2 or 10 amps. It trickle charges at 100ma . And starts the peak charge at 500ma and I was wondering if 500ma is to much for. I would like peak charging to start at 150 or 200ma for tx batteries .
