What charger???
#26
SuperBrains are really good also. that is what i use. The older 900 model i think but not sure off hand. they have some really good newer models now that will charge everything.

I like the dynamite X4 versions better they have 100watt X4 and 50watt X4 I like them better because they use 4 screens so you can see charging info for each pack much better all the time without selecting through one screen to see pack info, and they have a better discharge option the 100 watt is 5 amps and the 50 watt is 3 amps venom 100 watt one is only 1 amp discharge.

My SuperBrains have lasted quite a few years. So, I looked at them first. But, they don't have any x4 chargers and, looking at the MRC website, their options appear to be dwindling quickly. Not sure if they're leaving the charger market.

Got my venom pro duo in today, nice charger, a little confusing, I'm wanting to discharge and charge my 1700 7.2 Ni-cd battery. Just trying to figure this out on how to get that started. I guess where Im getting confused is trying to figure out what the best charging amp is for the batteries that I have. I don't want to over charge them.
7.4/1800 mAH Li-ion 2s
7.2/1700 mAH NI-CD
7.2 SC2000 mAH NI-MH
7.2 3800 mAH NI-MH
Never mind, its all coming back now, I just remembered how to set the amps depending on the size of the battery, example 1700 would be 1.7
7.4/1800 mAH Li-ion 2s
7.2/1700 mAH NI-CD
7.2 SC2000 mAH NI-MH
7.2 3800 mAH NI-MH

I have been using the Hyperion chargers for a long time and have 2 of these, I keep one in the shop and one in the boat racing trailer. They have been rock solid.

I just got a Venom Pro 3 for my current dive back into RC cars. I needed a nimh charger and so happens this one does all batteries. One at a time, but it's ok with me cause I don't race and am pretty casual. I can wait, lol.

Guy's I picked up a charger that will charge Lipo, life, nimh , nicd all with one press of a single button and the charger sets everything automatically! Its up to 4 amps, doing some tests on it right now and will post a video of how it works when I am finished testing it.
If all goes good it should be a great charger for anyone to use even the kids it's that simple!

Charger Tamco 200 Watt
Good morning, I put on sale my charger 200W Tamco (55 Euros) with even the display protective film. I purchased by mistake and I had forgotten that I had my charger 400w. For convenience I use one for my Lipo. L 'object is in Italy and if you are interested I can negotiate to find agreement on the price (including shipping!). Let me know. Yours sincerely.
