im looking at chargers and balancers right now so if you have any suggestions let me know i need to get something ordered and have it here my friday.

I would stay with the Hyperion brand
if you have a budget I would go with the 0606i model, it wil do a 6s 6000 pack with an external PS but if you dont I would go with the 0610i which I have but you will need an external PS, and if you like the 0610i model also comes in a duo model where it has 2 builtin balancers and jack for charging 2 packs at once they just have to be the same packs ( same voltage and and capacity)

I also use the Ofna 18 amp PS my combo of the 0610i and the Ofna PS is compact enough to bring with the track and it is plenty for my FP 6s 5000 and with the FP packs you can charge up to 2.5c, I havent tried going over 1c yet but 2c would be the max of the combo
