Default Recommended Charger

Im in search of a new charger my cap is 125, my needs are basic just charging two 2s lipos for my bump box, 2s lipo Tx and Rx packs and a couple Nimh Rx packs would prefer something in the 15 to 20 amp charging range and AC capable. If you can help please post. Thanks

A little over your budget but it's a great charger.
It requires a power supply. Once you get a power supply you wont regret it.
You wont be disappointed.

'20 amps' and 'AC capable' can't be combined in one compact box.

Power Supply
I love my 206b. If you're handy with a soldering iron you can convert a server power supply to power it. Cost me $5 and I have 700 watts and 20 amps.

10amps DC is easy enough: http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/s..._US_Plug_.html

However, in the next few months there will be a 20amp DC available, but it will be more than $125.

Thanks everyone I've checked out a several chargers and narrowed it down to the 206b w/power supply which technically lets me plug into in outlet and the hyperion 720i which is a little closer to my price range. The X200 would be the one but i have to rule it out based on parallel charging 2 3000mah packs @2c would surpass its capabilites.
