Very good charger even for lipo
By David P. Johns
I've only had this charger for ~1 month, but, so far it works great. My son and I have put it through its paces charging our two batteries 2 and 3 times per day each!! That's 4 to 6 charges per day. It does not overheat nor does it have any issues. Having said that, we're only using the 7 cell 3000maH batteries. However, this charger has AC/DC current so that we can charge our batteries while away from home. That's the beauty of DC.I love the LCD display as it tells you most anything you'd need to know about your battery. It also charges lipo batteries but we haven't gotten to that point just yet. I have one coming in this week and will update later as to how well this charger works for the lipo.Also, adjustable amperage is a must!!! I got lucky when purchasing this charger from my local hobby shop because I had no clue as what to buy. The sales guy was very helpful and patient with us and this is the charger he recommended.I also think the 5 year warranty is a HUGE plus for this charger. I don't know what other chargers have in regards to warranty, but doubt many have a warranty for 5 years! :)I do not find the fan noise objectionable at all. Mine is very quiet, sure you can hear it, but, it's barely above a whisper. Perhaps I'm hard of hearing..... lolThe only negative (this is picking nits) is having to purchase an adapter for my Traxxas batteries. It's only $4 so it's NO big deal.

Works well with my 4600 7 cell NiMH
By Daniel Beck
So far I'm digging it. At 4 amps the 4600 7 cells top off in about 50 min. The fan is a bit noisy so I have to leave it in the garage. I have compared the voltage reading on the charger to a separate DVM (no load) and found the charger is displaying about a half a volt higher than the battery is truly at. It's not a big deal as long as it is consistent. The biggest plus is the real time voltage reading vs. the peak voltage during the charge. You can get an idea of your batteries health, about how long it will take to finish charging, and how well it has charged rather than trusting a blinking light.Pros: Real time voltage / peak charge voltage. It will charge Lipo's for when I upgrade. Runs cool.Con's: Noisy fan, not so trustworthy voltage readings.
