It's not the cheapest setup, as a matter of fact it may be the most expensive for the numbers, but I'll be running FMA/Kokam's new BalancePro packs in a few weeks (when they're actually out).
I'll be running two of the 2s2p packs in series. It will work out to 14.8v and 6400 mAh. I'll also be getting the specialized charger for the BalancePro. This should mean I'll get both batteries charged to 90% in about an hour. The charger goes up to 10 amps and the batteries can be charged up to 3C with the specific charger.
This is the setup I'll be using to get my 1/8th buggy through a 15 or 30 minute main. I'll probably be better off going from the 8L ot the 9L for this (Mike?).

I also have 2 of the 3s 3200 Kokam packs (20C) that I'll run in parallel for the same purpose. These are charged with my ICE charger at 1C each, which takes about twice as long.

Joe Electronics run on smoke... if you let the smoke out, they stop working.
