Well, the Hitec is my favorite out of the ones that are pictured. Power distribution (can put all 100w to one channel, or divide up the wattage between channels), and ability to see internal resistance of cells makes the X2 AC Plus a favorite of mine. Though the IR reading may not be highly accurate (so say the charger snobs
) it gives me a look into the health of a pack's cells. On a 3S pack, if you get readings of 005mΩ, 004mΩ, and 027mΩ...you know one cell is not like the others.
The other two chargers, in other post's picture, are my first LiPo chargers that I got in 2010. I have another 80w B6AC+ charger, and a Ultra Power UP120AC DUO charger. I rotate the chargers every once and awhile. When we have all day get togethers at the house, I/we will have all five chargers going. The low budget B6AC chargers get the job done. Needing lots of batteries charged in a day is why I got three of them. They were my second group of purchases from eBay. The very first purchases from eBay were my WinMax LiPo packs (in picture).
