With the 3S lipos (assuming they're ~5000mah or there abouts), charger needs more power than just 50watts or the charger will limit charge current to stay below its power limitation.

This is where an 80watt charger makes sense. Here is one thats basically an upgrade to the popular Thunder AC6 AC/DC charger, but it has 80watts of power and a 6amp max charge rate -

Agree with Duster on the charger.

Both the AC6 and AC680 are great chargers for those with modest charging needs.

I have the AC6 and 3 of my friends have the AC680. If I were buying today I would go with the AC680. The extra 30 watts is helpful with 3S packs or if you want to series or parallel multiple packs..
