Chargers

[trev3813]

Im looking for a decent, all around charger, this one will do more than i'll ever need, because my E-Revo some day will be 6s, so its perfect. Is it a decent charger, and what power supply would i need to get?

That charger will work fine . But it will take a while to charge because of the low wattage . this charger will charge your lipo faster . It's what me & alot of of other members use .

I understand but it's only a few bucks more & you will never have to buy another charger . It will be able to charge your 6s lipo at a much higher amp rate than the other charger . Ask for other members opinion on which charger is better .

I'm certain that you won't be happy with the 0606i, it's a good charger and all but not for a dual battery setup such as the e-revo. You said that someday you'll run 6s so I'm going to assume for now your running 4s. The 0606i will charge a 2s pack at up to 6amps so 2 hours to charge 2 seperate 2s 6000mah packs. If you where to go to 6s (2x3s) 5000mah is the biggest pack that will fit. That same charger will only charge a 3s pack at about 3amps so it would take about an hour and 40 minutes per pack! I know this because I started with the eos 0606i ac/dc charger. I now run a eos 0610i duo with an 18 amp Ofna power supply. It will charge 2 3s packs at 1C without a problem! The charger is costly but it should meet your charging needs forever!

Converted nitro Revo

Single 4s pack then I'm guessing. Means the most the charger will charge at is 3 Amps so if you have a 5000mah pack your looking at about 1:45 to charge the pack, 6000mah will likely take about 2:10

i'm really happy with my EOS0610I . I'm glad i spent the extra cash and went with quality and power. it's powered by a 25amp radio sack power supply

The 606 is limited to 50W which is why it is slow - It is still a very nice charger - Just a bit slow on bigger packs...

Go to hobbyking.com (hobbycity.com) and pick up a Turnigy Accucel-6 and IMax 16A 14V power supply, all for under $80.

The Accucell-6 is a nifty little charger - I've been using one for about a month and it is a very featured charger, will pretty much do everything. Its limitation is that it's only a 50watt charger. Within that limit though, its hard to beat, especially given the price.

http://www.hobbycity.com/hobbycity/s...r_&_discharger My buddy just got 1 of these.It seems to work good.With http://www.hobbycity.com/hobbycity/s...y_for_Chargers it's around 120 shipped,and will give you a 200 watt combo.

I found a Hyperion EOS0610I 250W 6S 10A for $150

apparently the EOS0610I is out of production already, its being replaced by the EOS0720i http://media.hyperion.hk/dn/eos/
