Can someone help me out with purchasing a dual lipo charger??? I just purchased the e-revo brushless edition and i need two batterys to run, i will be mainly be using Zippy 5000MAH 20c and 30c lipos. I was also wondering can i use 2 6s lipos? I dont think so cause the ESC can't handle the voltage?

I use the turnigy accucell 8150 with the gt twin adapter from hobby city to charge my two 5000 mah 3s lipos as a 5000mah 6s lipo.
You could run 2 6s lipos in parallel but with the battery cases on the e-revo i have not seen any 6s lipos that will fit.

Two 6S can be used if hooked parallel.

For a dual lipo charger capable of 5 amps or so try the Duo charger.

A single charger will also parallel charge two packs if they're the same number of cells and that opens up a lot more options. Either way you may look into something with over 100 watts.

I think ill just get the hyperion duo. But its costy![:@] If i would run a 6s parallel, i think i would get bored driving it! LOL

How long does it take for my zippy 5000mah 20c to charge with the hyperion dual?

rbjeepthing

my MA5500 takes about 50-60min dpends on how far down it is.

If you charge both of the packs in parallel wouldn't it take just as long if not longer then charging them separately (assuming your balance charging)? Someone told me it was dangerous too

That would be the only way you could run two 6s packs. If you ran them in series you'd have 44.4 volts! Well over the esc rating

no its not dangerous and it doesnt take any longer if im charging 2 batteries in sync with each other or one seperate or even 2 completely different batteries its kinda like 2 seperate charger balancers stuff in a lil box the sync charge thing is my favorite part of the duo though it makes sure that the 2 lipos are charged to the exact same voltage and balanced the same perfect for running them together and it plays a nice lil jingle when its all done haha

HAHAH! I guess you love jingles Ill wait a day and ill get the duo

milkbox

I mean if you charge it with a regular single battery charger not the duo lol. You would have to get a Y harness for the the power and a harness for the balance port right?

MRC 977 costs $100

I'm leaning towards the Hyperian duo but i might just sped the cash saved from purchasing the MRC 977. But i dont know the quality of the MRC 977?
