If you live outside the US, rclipos.com sells it for $120, inc. international shipping.

There are also two versions of this charger.

Version A has a blue LCD and a minor software bug. When balance charging lipos using a bullet harness, it will constantly beep and display an error as you unplug the lipo, requiring you to hit cancel. It's not critical, just a minor annoyance.

Version B has a yellow LCD and a software fix for the above problem. It also includes a lipo store function.

I imagine most places would have version B in stock by now. It's been out for awhile.

On another note, if you find a Swallow EQ at a good price, they're identical internally. Open up an 0606i and inside you will find a 'Swallow EQ' PCB.

Finally, if your 0606i ever dies, open it up and you'll find a perfectly usable 5A 12v power supply. It's a generic laptop/monitor power adaptor they built into the case. Perfect for powering a Turnigy Accucel or equivalent.
