For a charger, look ultrapower. I believe they make chargers for several more mainstream brands (the UP120AC looks a great deal like one of Reedy's chargers). Now that you know the wattage you are looking for, you might find what you need there for much less $$ than some of the bigger-name brands. I have a UP100AC Duo. It's tiny, charges two 2s batteries at a time, as fast as I need and runs on AC power. I only wish discharge power was greater, because it takes a long time to storage-discharge at only 1.3a. Bigger chargers should be more powerful in this way.
Thank you for the recommendation, I'm looking into them now :-D
