It is really a matter of preference on how you like to charge your packs. I always suggest a good Peak style charger, as this allows the pack to come up to it;s "Peak voltage" and the charger shuts down. This prevents over heating and over charging which is what kills packs. <div> I use an MRC 977 Super Brain. MRC has been around for a very long time in model rail roading so they have a long history good products.</div><div> There are many good chargers on the market, you need to do a little foot work and look into this to suit your own needs. I have packs that are as high as 5300 mAh, so the charger needs to be able to handle the capacity of the packs you use. Again this falls under the preference category. I like to put a pack in a model and not need to worry about if I'm going to run out of juice in the middle of a fight. I would rather get killed by the opponent than by a dead battery.</div><div> I run 2 - 5000 mAh packs in my Tiger, one for the DMD and one for the MF unit. It is a very heavy tank so I know it wont run out of power. Now in my Panther G I run a 3600 pack that is zapped with all matching cells. This is my hot rod and MBT. Very reliable and deadly. Just do some research and invest in as good a charger as you can afford because it will save you money in the long run.</div>
