Hello Fasstrevo,

When the LaCross BC900 came out, it was at the top of the heap. However, since then, Maha came out with their C9000 unit. It actually has a Break-In function that will charge your cell at 0.1C for 16 hours, then do a 0.2C discharge to determine the capacity of the cell, and finally charge it back up at 0.1C for 16 hours. This feature is not available on the BC-900, and I think it makes the C9000 much more attractive, even though it costs a little more.

I'll check it out, thanks Tom!
