Hi,
Am new to electric and what i know, could be written on the back of a stamp!!!
Am looking to power an aircraft (Sebart Angel 30e) and want to know which charger will be good. I've seen the Bantam BC6-10 and the BC6, what would be the difference in charge times for 3s 11.1v 3200 batteries.
I have no idea how long batteries take to charge in general, i know on average you get anywhere between 8-12 minutes depending on the power combination, so was thinking of buying up to 3 packs. How long on average does it take to recharge packs like these, and can you buy a cable to attach the charger to a standard 12v lead acid battery to charge 'at the field'?
Thanks in advance,
Gareth.

If I can make a suggestion, I own the bc6-10 charger and its ok but the one I use most is a GT POWER 6,very good and comes with a temp probe plus lots of extras.I can charge my 3200 mah packs in 55 min,this charger is $65.00 to $72.00 ,I paid 65.00 at FUSIONPACK.COM

Gareth,
I've got a couple of these which I'm really pleased with, I also have experience with some of the more expensive ones and if I needed another tomorrow would get another of these http://www.sussex-model-centre.co.uk...d.asp?id=21255
It'll take approx 1 Hr to charge them and they come with the leads installed / crocodile clips to connect to a battery at the field.

Thanks guys.
Swapadog, had a look at the charger, i buy most of my gear from sussex model centre, but i missed that charger. It looks perfect, it's half the price of the Bantam, so i might take a run down to the shop and have a look.
Much appreciated,
Cheers,
Gareth.

Gareth,
For some reason missed this reply, did you get one in the end ???
Whereabouts are you if they're not far away, they're only 20 mins away from me.
