How many cells are you looking for it to charge? Your best bet may be a Super Brain 959, those can charge up to 8 cells at up to 4 or 4.5amps (one or the other). They do have a tendency to false peak sometimes, but there are modifications that can be done to help prevent them.

I you would be will to spend about 30 bucks more you can get the Multiplex. It's a very good charger and can charge up to 14 cells or 5S lipo.

get the new superbran 989! i think it does 20 cell and lipos too. I have 2 digi pirhansas

[squeeforever]

The 989 went up to $175....

The digital piranha has been great for me. Just got a 977 so I can charge both of my packs at the same time though!

But yeah..the digital piranha is $50. Only thing is that if you want to charge higher than 3Amps, you'll need a power supply...

My vote is for the Superbrain 959. As stated, it charges up to 8 cells, and does go up to 4.5A: charge current range: 0.5A to 4.5A in 0.5A increments. I've made several adaptors so it charges pretty much all batteries in my house now - very useful!
