I was down my LHS today picking up a Pro-Peak 13.8V 20A power supply and was offered a Hitec CG-335 at a really good price so snapped it up. It can do 4-24 cell, and although it doesn't have the configurability of my Novak (Can't adjust delta peak cutoff) it seems to be doing OK, my new charge setup is silent compared to my old PSU/Novak setup. It also has a secondary output for reciever packs, and a special glowplug thing (although as I don't run nitro I have no use for either).

So anyone have any experience with this charger? Have I just wasted my money or is it going to treat my cells nicely The only thing that concerns me is the box says "MOSFET drive control with pulse charging". Whereas I always use a linear charge on my Novak. Should this make much of a difference?
