Torn between two chargers

i think im going to get the same chrager rc

if i do it NEEDS some cf stickers, or be dyed black LOL i hate that color, looks old and cheap imo....

Not quite... It will only do 50watts output. For 5s Lipo at 4v/cell it can only put out 2.5amps. It also can't connect to the Hyperion balancers.

I have one here and it does. Next time I charge I will post picture. The balancer works perfectly with it.


As far as charging 2 packs at once, its not recomended at all. You can buy 2 of the cheaper ones and be miles ahead.

EOS 5i? Are you sure you don't mean the EOS 7i? The 7i will do in series 5s (upto), I have this charger actually, and will not do my 5s at all unless it's half charged already, it will do my 4s with no sweat though in series. This is the whole reason I got the 989 (which is better IMO). I would go with the 989. Works with the hyperion balancer too, no prob.

Is it the regular EOS5i? It's the same charger as the Multiplex LN-5014 (internally), and the LN-5014 is limited to 50watts power output.
This charger cannot interface with the LBA10 balancer, which is what I meant (I know the charger/balancer will work together).

Then there's the EOS5iDP:

I looked all over the manual (even searched in it) for a maximum output power rating, but couldn't fit it.
