Dual lipo charger recommendations

Loving the d300 so far. Charged up my 3s lipo batteries from storage in around 35-40 minutes, and display/ interface very user friendly. Discharge from almost full to storage took about 2 hours, traxxas charger would easily take around 3-4 hours discharging to storage mode from full. Octopus splitter cable was an excellent choice not having to deal with multiple adaptor cables
 
Love mine just charged my 8000mah gens.ace gtech to full from storage in a little over 40 min... can't complain.

You bring up another good point about charger features and selection... discharging. The internal resistors of chargers can only do so much, and a charger's case only has so much room. A charger with external discharging hookup, and/or regenerative discharging features is a huge bonus. I use a resistor bank, or light bulbs quite often to quickly discharge a pack that unexpectedly doesn't get used in a day of RCing activities.
