Isn't this the same as the imax/GT/etc chargers? http://www.towerhobbies.com/products...ytm1001_e.html

Yep, that it is. I still haven't bought one, big surprise. I just want a reasonably priced ac/dc not plagued with quality issues with a warranty. I guess you really need to spend $100 to find one. It doesn't help that I'm ignorant when it comes to lipos and I'm gunshy after reading about all the proper methods of dealing with them.

I recommend the Thunder AC6. Its exactly the same as a $200 orion charger for $60. Had mine over a year, works perfectly.

Redlinz, don't know what to tell you, but maybe you're better off with the AMain version. That extra cost buys you some support/warranty coverage if its needed.
Def another Thunder AC6....
Amain has another new charger in teh lineup too, but its DC - copy of the Accucel-6 charger -

Yea, I was about to go AC6 until I went to Hobbypartz's forum and saw thread after thread on AC6 issues. Seems like a recent batch of them or something. I'd buy a DC charger as long as it has an AC hook up option. I've been trying to find info/feedback on the Dynam Doublepower that Hobbypartz sells.

Well, it must be a bad recent batch. Check out www.rcdiscuss.com under hobbypartz support thread towards the bottom.
