Thanks for the input guys. I Almost got the protek prodigy but needed up getting the hitec x2 400 and trak power 25amp supply. But I now have a couple more questions.
1. The x2 400 says to use a min 60 amp supply but a lot of ppl just use 25-30amp. In the manual it says use the min 60 or could damage the charger. Is this true? I haven't heard of any issues using a 25amp.
2. Capacity cutoff setting. Can I just shut this off? Or do I need to change the setting for every battery I use? Right now it is set at 5,000 mah but my batts are 5600, 6000 and 6500mah. I thought as long as I have the max cell voltage set to 4.2volts it will be fine. Any advise?
3. I have the trackstar rechargeable put light which has a 1s 2600mah lipo so I can plug it right into my charger. But it doesn't have a balance plug on it so how does the charger know when to stop charging it? I left it on charger for an hour earlier
And it hadn't shut off. All my 2s lipos charged fully in like 30 min.
