I have electric RC cars. And I hate charging batteries. When you spend all day at the event you don't want to spend most of the day charging.
I see people there with 4 or more chargers working their buttons off just to keep up with full batteries. And the cost to have a set up to do all that cost 3 or 4 times your car cost.
A good 4 port lipo charger will cost you a good $300 and for 4 7200mah 50c 4s batteries will cost about $150 each.
now you have about a $1000 in batteries and charger.
I can buy a nice RC car for that.
Just my 2 cents
I don't know about you. But for me I check to see if the question was from 5 years ago.
But since you brought it up... I can usually charge a pack in about the same time it takes me to do tire prep. ... Which is also about the same time it takes to charge the RX/TX batteries for nitro.
