not sure, but the basic specs make it look like a cheap charger to me. 50 watts per side, or 100 watts to one side?

A lot of what you are paying for, is name. Schultze MGM and BK Warrior were the big three of brushless before Castle and Novak made brushless mainstream

Country of Mfg origin has a bit to do with it.
Directly from their site;
The very best chargers in the world are made by Schulze in Germany. In common with all premium products, Schulze chargers tend to be more expensive than other brands.

and ist european and the dollar is still low sow pay up

My Schulze Chameleon ISL 330 is still going great since 2004! Very well made but have not tried any of their newer chargers as I now use Hyperion DUO 3's

Probably lets out the magic smoke like their ESC's used to if you look at it sideways


Looks a lot like the Protek/Venom dual charger IMO ......

What's top quality in a charger? Todays less expensive chargers are built great and charges great. How can u do better then let's say a Hyperion charger?
