The Multiplex LN-5014 and the Triton Jr are priced within a couple of dollars of each other. Which is the better charger considering I will be fast charging NiMH and NiCad packs for now, but plan to venture into lipos in the near future? 3S1P 1300 -2000mah packs will probably be the largest lipos I'll be buying. The $50 to $80 price point is what I want to adhere to. How does the Hobbico Quick Field Charger MK II stack up against these other two?

Thanks, David

The MKII is outclassed by the two chargers you mentioned yet is still a dual unit and is cheaper.

Thanks guver. So, between the first two I mentioned is the Triton Jr a newer and better unit?

I don't know, they are very similar along with about 6-12 others in that same catagory or 14-15 cells and 5 amps.

I would also take the Bantam 301DX into consideration. It has all the same features and plus some more and should come into same price. It has very nice software and was tested to be even faster than the Schulze in the RCGroups (with NiXX).
There are atleast RcAccessory and TrueRC who sell these in the US.

I've got a list of a dozen or so chargers in this 15 cell x 5 amp catagory and I think the original Triton blows them all away and can get a very nice ones for nearly the same cost. That's why I do not buy one yet, it seems like they are overpriced for a stripped down model.

If stuck on a 14 cell limit and 5 ampsm then the Triton JR and the Multiplex LN 5014 seem to be quite good deals at around $75-$79
