What Lipo Charger to use?
What kind of charger are you guys using to charge your Lipo packs. I've seen a lot of charger but I'm mainly looking for charger that can safely charge your lipo packs and balance/matched it at the same time and cost less.
Can you guys list some charger and their prices.

If you think the Much more Cell master or the Orion Advantage is expensive, you can get Duratrax's ICE charger. Just as good for charging LiPo...

Take a look at the Pro-trak charger-
I bought mine 7 years ago, I have just updated for the 2nd time (for a nominal sum) to now handle Li-Pos. How many other chargers can you say that about. It will do everthing you require and more with the accessories available.
Second hand units sometimes become available - but are snapped up like gold dust - and go for a good price (something to think about if you want to sell it later).
Try them at: http://www.pro-trak.co.uk/
Phil, who is Pro-Trak has been making chargers for many years, and what he doesnt know about batteries/charging isn't worth knowing as you'll see on his site.

Our Avionics Flight Charger is made by the same supplier that makes our Advantage Advanced Charger which took the past two IFMAR World TC Champs to victory.

i believe the cellmaster's "lipo profile" current is not high enough to charge most lipos?
