I'm not a fan of venom batteries but the new charger they have out looks nice. It does life which is nice for transmitter and receiver packs. it also does 2 batts at once which is nice. The reason I say I don't like venom batts. is because I've seen a lot of them puff and I had a balance plug break off in one(which may of been my fault). The footprint of the newer venom is also a big plus.
