MRC Super Brain 977

Save for Lipo. The 977 will charge them also. I have had the 977 for a while now. Pretty nice charger. Although, when charging lipo, I still recomend paying cclose attention to the settings on the 977. I think its still far from 'foolproof'.

When you plug in a Lipo battery, it autodetects the equivilant cell count in NiMh. You have to manually select the cell count down to the Lipo cell count then when you hit start it will show the word LIPO in the cell count screen. Yoi have to manually scroll through to verify that it is indeed charging in the Lipo mode. The only other gripe I have in Lipo mode, the max amp rate you can charge is 2.5A for a 2s lipo, and 3A for a 3s lipo. If you have lipos bigger than 2500mah or 3000mah you cant charge at the full 1C rate.

But... All that said. Its very versitle. Can charge just about anything with it, you just have pay attention to what you are doing.
