False peaking can really only occur with NiMh/NiCd batteries where the charger has to detect when the battery peaks. With Lipo, the charger automatically peaks the battery at 4.2v/cell, where the battery remains at 4.2v/cell for the rest of the charge.

I have the Triton and it's really good so I can imagine the sequel will be even better.

I have a e-Station 902 now, it's awesome! :)

The 902 does 10amps and upto 12s lipo. I never use more than 4amps anyway for my lipos but it's nice to know your future proof for a long time.
