does anyone have one or can anyone tell me weather of not to buy one. if you think it's crap can you suggest something else that has 110-240v input and 12v dc input that can charge and balance 4-5 cell lipo at more than 1c any input would be great.
I went back and re-read your post and if you're serious about more than 1C charging 5S and 6S lipos that are 6000-6500mah, you will not find an AC/DC charger that will do that. A 1C charge on a 6S 6000 lipo needs a little more than 150watts, a 2S would take over 300watts and so on. I think the highest I've ever seen for an AC/DC charger is 120watts.
The only chargers you'll find with this kind of power are DC powered. The iCharger 206B and 208B have enough output power and high enough max charge rates to charge at these conditions. You would need a power supply with 10-20% more power than the charger (inefficiency) to enable charger to run at max conditions.
