I bought that same charger from a retailer in Hong Kong for 15 bux + shipping. I think total was about 28- 30 bux. It took about three weeks to get to the states.It works great. I think I read somewhere that basically all the charges that look like...

I need to buy one and I'm lookin' to keep it cheap (under $50 if possible). These are the batteries I'm going to run...

Would the Thunder AC6 be a good fit, or is there another one out there I'm missing?

Last post

Damn...only $85 for that one and you can charge 4 batteries at the same time. Not a bad deal.

My car's an old Losi x2 proformance with a brushed motor though, so if I had 4 charged batteries I'd also have a melted diff, lol.

Hey guys, I had a question about my new lipo battery and charger. So I've been charging 2S Lipos with an Imax B6AC charger for quite a few years without a problem. However, I recently tried charging my new 6S, 22.2v, 5,000 mah lipo battery with it...

Last post

that's the issue with most AC/DC chargers - the inner converter design usually has cut corners to cut costs. And when it toasts, you have to replace the whole thing :(

There are plenty of good choices out there. I was using 6S for a couple of years...

Ok when i first got into rc i bought a little lipo only charger it was ok but didnt have a power supply and was a bit too small to charge my 6s 6200 for my 1/8th scale so i replaced it with a protek 610 it WAS a great charger untill it has gotten to...

I guess this depends on what you are charging... strictly 2S for 1/10 scale or more than 2s for 1/8 or heli....

Do you currently have a DC power supply, or do you want one with the PS built in (AC/DC)?

And how much do you want to spend?

I had a...

I bought my first LiPo batteries, 1/18th scale Duratrax 1800 maH batteries. They each came with three connectors, a pair of 3.5 mm maie connectors and a 2 mm male connector. I understand the 3.5s, they are for positive an negative leads from the ESC...

Last post

If you already have a charger, then you will need to buy the balance plug that suits that charger... (or buy a balance adaptor to suit your charger and balance connector you use..)

I'm not 100% sure, but I think that the Imax chargers use JST...

The time is finally here...I'm going to LiPo. :lol:

After looking for a charger, the MRC Super Brain 992 Palm seems like a good choice for me. But I'd like to know if it will be capable of charging my LiPo's.

It's AC/DC, which I prefer, and...

Sorry I was out a few days, but that definitely looks like XH to me. It is the most common connector as far as I've seen. Most inexpensive ebay batteries come with that type.

First post

I really have two questions:

1> I recently purchased a Lipo charger that does NOT have a balancer? Are balancers really necessary? Was it a mistake to buy a charger without a balancer?

2> Have you heard of the MYSTERY balance Chargers being sold...

Last post

In my experience (and I've had at least 15 lipo packs now). Good quality 2S packs rarely go out of balance, cheaper ones can drift and old packs even more so. Anything above 2S I would never charge without balancing.
