Charger advice/help
#1
I am in the market for a new charger and have been searching and coming up more and more confused. What I am looking for is a 4-port charger that I can charge up to 4 6600mah 2s lipos on at a time and maybe an occasional 3s. I have been looking at the hitec x4 but I cant seem to get confirmation that it will be enough to do 4 2s lipos at 1c charge rate simultaneously. I like the idea of not having to haul around a power supply in addition to the charger but, I am not opposed to it if its needed. Do you think this charger will be sufficient for my needs or should I be looking at something else? I have a budget of $200-300 but would much prefer to stay as close to $200 as possible. Thanks!

You're pretty much on the edge with the Hitec with only 50W per channel. Theres a Protek one with 80W/channel http://www.amain.com/product_info.ph...-6S-7A-80W-x-4
That should fit your needs....for now. Myself I would pick a nice DC dual charger, get a decent power supply and charge at 2C if the need arises. In this hobby, changes are frequent and you are limited with an AC/DC charger.

I like the protec charger Yosh70 linked,at the very least more than the hitec one. Any suggestions for something else? I am fairly set on charging 4 2s at once but I am open to something requiring a power supply. I don't see myself charging more than 1 or 2 3s at once and if I have to wait a little longer on the 3s batteries I'm fine with that. Thanks guys!
