Default Max current... Worth it?

So I'm looking into getting a new lipo charger. I've narrowed down my choices to 2 both AC, Charger A is 80w and Charger B is 200w. Both are reputable brands. I don't plan on going up from 2s anytime soon. The only major difference other than wattage is the Max current A is 8a while B is 10a. Other than that its a $20 difference between B and A. Is the extra 2a really worth 20 buckaroonies? Or am I better off pocketing those extra simoleans?

Most decent lipos these days can safely be charged at more than 1c. I would get the 10amp charger all other things being equal.
