what brand charger should I buy ?

I personally recommend this one. AC & DC, 2 Ports, 100Watts each port, 8 Amps per port, excellent features, very reliable, and a USA warranty.

EVPD610AC 120 - D610AC 120V Dual Port (2x 8Amps, 2x 100Watts): LiPo, LiIon, LiFe, NiCd, NiMh

Used the coupon code ILLTRYVANT for free shipping. Lol just have to wait over a week to actually get the battery. I'm roughly 2 hours from Barnstormers and its going to take 8 days to get it here via FedEx lol if you have time to wait use the fee shipping. If you want the pack in a reasonable amount of time. Pay the extra for shipping lol oh well, live and learn.

Also this is in no way negative towards barnstormers/Dirt Cheap/ the Barn Floor. I didn't mean it as that. The battery was shipped same day and at a great price. I just can't believe the FedEx shipping time is so long.

My saddle packs are super fast. Just as good as packs twice the money.

I have an enduro race coming up where we run for 90 minutes straight...just ordered 2 batteries, we will see how they compare

These look like very good packs
I could use some 4s

Super happy with the saddles I have now ordered some 4 cell to try....

My son and I have 4 shorties, 4 saddles, and 6 dual posts for 4x SCT.

Favorite batteries ever.

vant lipo 2cell batteries
 
Has anyone used the vant lipo batteries? I just picked up a 2 cell 7600 and on the bottom of battery it said the charge current can't exceed 2c what does this mean?

2c would be ~15amps charge rate (7.6ah x2)

I haven't used those but since you're looking for a bargain I thought I'd share my secret. Floureon. I've bought like 5 packs off Amazon for prices ranging from $20 to $30. I got a 5200mah hard case 2 cell for $30 shipped......

I've been running them every day for months now with not a single problem. I had to stop buying them cause I have more than I need already. Still it's hard to pass up 4500mah 3 cell batteries for $30........

$30 5200 hard case 2 cell http://www.amazon.com/FLOUREON-5200m...=floureon+lipo

$30 4500 3cell http://www.amazon.com/Floureon-Li-Po...=floureon+lipo

$20 3000 3 cell http://www.amazon.com/Floureon-Li-Po...=floureon+lipo

And I don't know about C-ratings, all my packs are 30C, but I ran the 3000mah 3 cell in an 8th scale RC8 by itself and it worked beautifully and didn't hurt my pack. That beast usually takes 5000+mah 4 cells.

I have owned a vant 4600 2s 90c shorty pack for a bit over 3 month and love it. I use to run racers edge 100c until I tried vant the performance is equal at half the price. I am so happy with my vant that I order a 4s 6600 60c for my 8th scale buggy and plan to get more as I need them.

Also to let you all know that dirt cheap is no longer shipping with fedex ground (Thank God) they are now using usps 2 day Priority Mail.

That's great to hear! Thank you for your feedback!

As for shipping Priority Mail. This is true. We can now ship most of our batteries using USPS Priority!!!!

USPS is way better. I've ran my 4600 90c shorty pack a couple times now and its a great battery. My only real complaint is the female bullet plugs are on the large side. Do you know what bullets for the best? Even the stock ones that come with it for charging don't fit tight. I like a real nice tight fit.

Got my 4 cell 5000 40c+ Lipo in and mounted it into the TLR 3.0 E Buggy. Lots of power and run time. Thanks again for good product and great price.
