A couple of those chargers are more than $75.00. If you're gonna spend that much, you're better off ponying up for the ICE. It's worth it.

Stop yelling and listen to the advice. You asked, so accept the responses. Not to mention you didn't say you would not get the ICE, you only said you don't need something like it.

How about the Novak Ionic-D? Very favorably reviewed in RC Driver and in your price range.

Out of those I would take the LRP Pulsar Comp. Very nice charger, lots of features and is a lot better than the MRC.

That's a great charger! I voted for Millenium Pro on the poll...too bad they don't make 'em anymore. But, if you need one for charging NiMHs at 0.5, 1, 0r 4 amps, the Ionic-D has always been my favorite (But my other chargers are a cheap Tx charger, and the ever horid Piranha Peak Power AC/DC). On the Ionic-D, I charge batteries in a manner I shouldn't, 4A instead of 3A, but the batteries aren't that hot when they're done, thanks to Novak's NiMH2.

Well the future is going to be Lipo. Why waste your money on a charger that can't handle Lipo?
