What Lipo Charger to Buy ?
I need a charger for Lipo batteries in my touring car.
Will be using it for club racing mostly.
What chargers work the best and are the most user friendly ?
Also what is a good bang for your buck lipo pack ?
Thanks

you can never go wrong with the ICE charger. It's cheap, easy to use and can safely charger all the current lipo's on the market. Best bang for your buck may be the orion 3200 pack. It has dropped in price and fits in most TC's. I'm sure others will chime in and give you their opinion. Take note of everything said from other racers....then do some homework on the products listed and make your choice from there.
Good luck.

lipo charger
go with the hyperion 610i it has a built in balancer hey dude i would and as much as i like the ice it does not have that , as far as lipo goes depends on what you are doing ( racing or bashing) racing i would get a roar legal one and bashing just about any of them would work for ya , i like the max amps my self HYPERION IT HAS BUILT IN BALANCER AND YOU SHOULD BALANCE YOUR LIPOS

If you run a LiPo you will need to invest in a Balancer..... So my vote is for this charger with the balancer built in...

Why waste your money on an ICE when you can get so much more very nearly the same price?

Tht's right. Me and another frd have decided to get the Hyperion. Main thing is cause it's upgradable software.

You guys should be ashamed for suggesting the ICE to anybody, there are much, much better choices out there in that price range. And nobody cares about motor break-in stuff anymore.

Oh yeah, that too! You can upgrade the software with your computer, and you can hook the charger to a computer to get a ton more information, graphs, etc. than you'd ever care to see.
