cswrench -> Charger choices (5/11/2008 11:12:02 PM)
I have narrowed my choices on chargers between these two Team Checkpoint TC-1030 Racing Charger or DuraTrax IntelliPeak ICE DC Competition Charger, They both look like great chargers, pros or cons on either? Any input would be appreciated. I will be using them for a lipo setup in a rc18t and some nimh 1/10 scale stuff. thanks in advance!

They are pretty much the exact same charger with exact same power discharge and charge. Obvious difference is the backlite and 10 amp charge current for the TC1030. The 30 amp discharge and the 10 amp charge is meaningless unless you are using 6 cells and lots of power. 3 step is kinda meaningless as well. My opinion is that the ice is a lot more charger for your money.

What about lipo balancing for the ICE?

Have you looked at the Thunder Power 610C? Its around the same price as the Ice, but has a built in balancer so you can see the voltage for each cell. Can't discharge nearly as high though. High discharge rates are really better for ni-mh and such.

The Ice would need a seperate balancer for balancing.

I would check out the Triton or the Triton Junior :)

I would recommend this one http://b-p-p.com/proddetail.php?prod=fa_0606i_DC or if you would rather have a built in power supply http://b-p-p.com/proddetail.php?prod=f_EOS0606i much better deals seeing as they have built in balancer for lipo use, they will charge nimh/nicd/a123s/and lead acid batteries
