Default Charger set that can charge 2S and 4S, two of each at the same time

As the fleet is growing, I realize that I have outgrown my i206b charging setup. My son and I are often running two classes, 1/8 and 1/10, so we need keep 2 4s and 2 2s batteries in charge most of the time.

I currently have a i206b using an HP DPS 600pb (12v 575w) and a charging board. I like to charge at 2c while at the track, to reduce charge time.

what charger is recommended and how do you calculate the wattage needed from the power supply? Batteries are in the 5000-6000mah range. Can the PS I have handle that? Can I buy another one and pair them up for 24v?

I would like some options that cover the value range, as well as the top of the price range.

thanks!
