RE: battery Charger help
Hi, and welcome to RCU.
Would you please list your specific batery sizes? (capacity,voltage or number of cells,charge rate,ect) Or at least the biggest ones or the maximum you'll be doing. It will help us to make a good recommendation. Thanks.

Hyperion sells a 12/120 volt multicharger. I love my EOS0606i; fast and very reliable. I hate my AC6; poor techsupport and performance. Take my advice..... Stay da #%@& away from hobbyparts and HobbyKing junk. The frustration you save may be your own!!!!

RE: battery Charger help
I totally disagree with the above statement so I guess it's 1:1 ! Accucel-6, Thunder AC-6, ecco 6, batman 6 have all worked for me. Some sold to others after they see them but I'm still using 2 of the "cheap" chargers and intend to order another.

RE: battery Charger help
I just went through the battery charger dilemma and after literally dozens of hours scouring forums/reviews and the web in general I ended up buying this. http://epbuddy.com/index.php?main_pa...&products_id=3
Another cool accessory these guys have is the Paraboard which is great and very neat for charging multiple batteries. See here. http://epbuddy.com/index.php?main_pa...products_id=84
Here is a decent write up about the charger. http://sites.google.com/site/tjinguy.../icharger-206b
