Suggest you check on the Ice charger it can do all batteries including the new A123's. Also can program 10 different packs in it. I have about 10 chargers and this is my favorite for all around use.

charging two lipos at once is a very bad and dangerous idea.

Jeez some people are just so paranoid about lipos. I have yet to have a lipo "explode" on me even when I tried shorting out old packs. On the other hand I have had a nimh pack go off like a grenade sending shrapnel into the next yard. As long as you have the proper charger with balancers and in a safe place or in a lipo sack then there is no problem with charging two lipos at once. Lipos don't even get warm while charging, unlike nimh cells. If you want to charge two at one time then you are pretty limited with that budget. The [link=http://b-p-p.com/proddetail.php?prod=0610iduo]Hyperion 0610i Duo[/link] is a good choice, but not for $125. My Hyperion EOS1210i can charge up to 30 nimh cells and 2 lipos at once if you have the dual external balancers networked.

sure, but i really don't think this guy has, or can buy the proper equipment within his budget, means of charging 2 lipos at once on the same charger safely.
