Status: offline 		The "best charger" is a difficult question. It depends on your use. I use an ICE with balancer and it works great for my 2s and 3s LIPO batts. Is there a reason your ICE isn't satisfactory? I really like mine, although it won't charge the next generation A123 LiFE batteries. The ICE is a good, solid charger.

I don't have experience with the above charger. Some have reported "no brand" discount Chinese chargers to be somewhat unreliable. For chargers I would stick to ones that are distributed by major hobby companies unless you know for sure someone has positive experience with the particular one you are buying, even though you pay a bit more.
