I need charger recommendations.
 

Currently have a Hitec X4 ac/dc that does a great job of charging all my lipo receiver packs. Now that I'm getting into the electric side of the house I'm looking for a charger that will do a good job of charging these larger 4s hard packs (5000-7000mAh). From a previous post I have concluded that my current charger would take quite a while to charge up these packs so Im looking for something with more juice. What do you guys recommend? I'm open to needing a power supply also.

iCharger series. I have the 308 Duo and it's a great charger. It does require a power supply.

I use a powerlab pl6 with a power supply from http://feathermerchantrc.com this combo works awesome

+1 great charger!!!

iCharger, but 206/208 model. Very small but still powerful. Anyway you should have cooldown period for your packs making 2-channel charger useless at the track.

Yep, best charger on the market IMO.

I went thru 2 iChargers before ending up with this combo.

+1 for iCharger 308 duo

Blah. Someone is still living in the NiXX days...

That junsi 308 or 406 chargers look amazing. Just make sure you have a power supply that can power it. You can parallel charge same cel count on each side, ie up to 6 2s packs on one port at 40 amps if you have the adapters. Check out the site listed above www.progressiverc.com
Red Rock Hobbies beats their prices though :cool:

Not trying to hijack the thread... But I have a similar situation with the X4 AC charger... My question is - Can you use an external power supply with a higher amp/wattage to speed up the charger... Since it's limited to 50w per charge lead on AC current?

Thanks

I don't think so, believe it's 50 watts per on both AC and DC.

There are some chargers that are capable of higher power on DC than AC, but I don't believe this is one of them.
