Both chargers will be Balancing chargers. C rating are 20c constant and 30c burst (15 seconds).

Budget balance chargers will be priced at 25-30, higher end balancing units will be the normal 50, all batteries will be 50... Prices are BEFORE discounts. I will also have a few voltage readers priced at 6.00 (no discount applies)

If you haven't made the jump up to lipos, you really should. Lithium polymer batteries are just a better all-around technology compared to the '90's technology of Nickel Metal hydride. They last long, and the voltage doesn't fluctuate nearly as much as NiCd/NiMh. So your rate of fire won't drop as your battery wears down, and you also won't have the split-second delay between when you pull the trigger and when the gearbox cycles. They're also extremely small. You can fit a super-small lipo that will last longer than the best NiMh large type pack you can find in a space meant for a mini. Even if you don't want to spend the money on gearbox upgrades to sustain an 11.1, a 7.4v is definitely worth it. Plus, if treated properly, a lipo will last about 400-500 charges, which means that even if you play almost ever weekend, your battery will still be going strong in 10 years. Also, the voltage readers are definitely something I'd recommend. If you run your lipo until it's empty, you can significantly reduce the life of the battery.

Great info!

Ill try to come by and pick up a charger!

are their any lipos that would preform comparably to a 9.6v Nickel Metal hydride?

7.4 20C+
