* A cursory glance reveals that it is as powerful as the 4010, but the size of the 308. The only difference is that it does less cells vs. the 4010. This might be the perfect charger for RC Cars, unless you fly helicopters or planes, in which case the 4010 has more options.

If so do you see the voltages of the 2 cells when charging?
