This seems to pack a ton of power and really like the 2 chargers in one kind of thing. This will be really efficient for me Has 2 LBA10's built in and i can buy this adapter for all my TP packs - http://www.amainhobbies.com/product_...ducts_id/18243 then i just need a PSU.
I just got that one, I like it. I have a 20 amp (350w) pc power supply and I was able to charge 2 trc 8000ma 7.4v packs at the same time ....

If you are considering cost, the Duo is nothing more than two 0610i's in one package. You could buy one of those, and another one down the road.....

I have the duo and love it - but I need the ability to charger two packs at once.


Losi 8T 1.0, Savage Flux - XL style, LST XXL, Muggy, 3.3 E-Revo Conversion and sitting outside 425hp, 831 Tq Dodge Ram Turbo Diesel. It SMOKES

About 6mos ago I bought the 0610i as a 2nd charger along with an Ice charger for doing 2 batts at once. I run them both with a ProPeak 20a PS and I've never come close to taxing it. Its a 13.8v about 275watts and was $59.95 new. The 0610i is a great charger, really happy with it.

But, now I seem to be getting more into lipos and wish I had bough the Duo for a lot of reasons, mainly because it would have been cheaper up front than adding a 2nd 0610i like I'm faced with now to let me network charge batts to run together as parallel pacs. Real important if you're into elect planes.

I guess my advice is to consider your future needs and see if your choice will take care of where you might be in 6months to a year as this side of teh hobby evolves.
