Charger/Blancer Selection

[Tinydancer]

I have gotten to the stage in my first build that I need to invest in a charger/blancer. I don't want get the least costing one but I don't want to get more than I need at top dollar. I will be running (2) 4S 5000mah 25C batteries. What I need in a charger is one that will do AC/DC, easy for a new comer to use. I would like to be able to charge both sets of batteries at the same time. Is there something out there like this or close to?:confused:

I use one of these Hyperion 1210i with 2 LBA10 balancers it will charge 2 packs at one time! Great charger and at this price its a steal! I think the balancers are $35 each.. So you can do the same thing the Duo charger does for half the price..

Smoking deal..... Kinda makes me wish I did'nt buy a DUO. I spent 300 when this setup for 1/2 the price would have done the same thing for me.

If I was you Tinydancer, i'd snatch that charger up before they are gone. At 85$ you can't beat it. Plus it's top quality.

I see what you mean about a great deal but without looking like a bozo what other items do I need to get....nothing says what comes with either...cables..connectors...etc.

The balancer adapters depend on which brand of liPos you are using. The connectors will be the same as you use on the batteries and speed control.

The cabling should be okay as provided.

Thnaks for everyones help! I just got off the phone and got everything I needed. Now the next step....charge it up and run it like I stole it!
