There was a shortage of them, maybe they're trying to make a buck. One downside that hasn't been well advertised is that if you plan to use them for lipo they will only do 2 cell packs, so no lipo receiver or transmitter pack charging on them.
I have one, it works well, menu system takes a couple of passes to get a handle on but it's not bad.

My next one will probaly be a lipo one.
They look pretty much the same and not exspensive.
It could come in handy in the future if i want to se a lipo pack

I'm loving my VXR LiPo pack in my 3PK...thank goodness my ICE can handle it no problem...
In the meantime my Advantage is working well on my IB3800s

Does Orion offer a software update for the original Advantage owners to make the charger LiPo capable?

Just returned from a 2 year break from racing, picked up one of these (LiPo
version) to charge my IB4200's
Does anybody have a charge profile they would recommend?
The 4200's from what i hear seem sensitive to chraging/discharging.
I'm guessing for linear;
5.5A.
3mv cut off.
Temp, Dont know.
Mah, Dont know.
Anybody use Step, find it any better?
Help would be much appreciated
Thanks.

I wouldn't go above 45c for these cells.

Hi, I just got me a Advantage Pro charger. On the box it clearly says: "Now LiPo ready!". But I can not find any setting for Lipo in the menu.
Can somebody help me here?
By the way, big disappointment this charger. Weird menus, cheap looking case, bad current measurements.
