That requires an external power supply.

You could go with an assortment like this, in case later you decide to buy something else... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07SK99GZL/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apan_glt_i_P7V65TW006N0A4DJ8BMM Or you could grab these...

No. The cheapest place to buy it is the link I shared. At least they were the cheapest when I bought mine. And RDQ is actually a very good place to buy from. The Hota is actually the knockoff of a Hobbymate D6 Duo Pro. From the research I have done, they are actually the exact same charger...

I personally would go for the Hota D6 Pro charger long before I spent the same money for that Venom. But then again, I have tons of connectors to make my own adapter cables. The Hota is not a compromise for me. It is the charger I wanted after doing a lot of research. At the time, I could have...

It is the mAh that determines how long it takes to charge a battery, but the more cells there are, depending on the wattage of the charger, the longer it will take. Also, it depends on where the battery is at when you start charging. A battery sitting at 3.2v/cell will take longer than one at...

The RDX1 Pro does show having an internal resistance meter.

If I could get to a darn post office I would just mail you one of my old ones. I do have this one which isn't terrible... https://www.amainhobbies.com/protek-rc-prodigy-610ez-ac-dc-lihv-lipo-balance-battery-charger-ptk-8522/p696353

Those guys are awesome. Pretty jealous you are close to them.

Oh, yeah, I missed that one.

Toolkit had some issues with some of their previous models, but they seem to be making nice stuff lately. Joshua Bardwell on YT has done a lot of charger reviews, and he mentions that in one of his Toolkit reviews. He's a pretty straightforward and knowledgeable reviewer too. I would say looking...

EC5's are what I use on all my 3s batteries. XT60's and XT90's are nice as well. When you decide on a charger, see what it uses and get the proper cables to adapt to your battery. The Hota uses XT60's. Most others use banana plugs. For the balance lead, I just use a 6" balance lead extension...

Good move. There are cheap chargers that are decent, but if you can spend a little more to get one with an IR meter built in, you will have a charger that will be better for taking care of batteries. The one I linked above, the Hota, is a great charger for the money. For LiPo's, Liperior, CNHL...

The Granite is a great RC. But I have to think the MT10 is as well. I would just stay away from chargers that don't allow you to properly care for the batteries. In the long run, they will cost you more in bad batteries due to not being able to monitor them and storage charge them. That cheap...

But you will still need a better charger. That one has no way to tell where your battery charge level is, has no way to storage charge, and these are two of the most important things needed to properly care for LiPo batteries. So basically you are paying $30 for a battery. But if your hobby shop...

As stated, chargers and batteries that come with the RTR kits aren't worth the money you pay for them. You are better off buying a Liperior, CNHL, or Zippy battery and an entry level charger. Stay away from the smart chargers unless you are just too lazy to do a little research on LiPo battery...
