Status: offline 		I am learning with these chargers but still am pretty much clueless , besides knowing bigger is better/faster. 100 - 150 bucks is in my budget for a new charger and have come to the Triton 2 or the Super Brain 989. Speaking to the guy up the hobby shop he said he has seen a lot of problems with the super brain 989. He also said that he had a shipment of the Hobbico chargers coming in. How do you guys think the Hobbico charger compares to the Triton 2? Thanks

Status: offline 		I'd give Evan a call here:
http://www.rcaccessory.com/
He has the e-station chargers Gadi refers to in his reply.
I have a BC-6 and use it for just about everything. My only regret is I only have one of them!

When you talk to Evan tell him what you want to do. He gives great advice, believes in service after the sale and
won't try to oversell you.
As they say...

Give Evan a call and tell him what you want to do and what your budget is.
If he can't fix you up he'll be honest and tell you.
Good luck!

You never mentioned what your charging needs are. Without that all you have here are brand opinions.

Status: offline 		The Triton2 and Elite have similar features and options, but one is a single 90 watt charger and the other is a dual (maybe 30-36 watt) charger. They are both good units.
