LiPO charger

[rcnut143]

Well I've been in the market for a lipo charger. I think I'm gonna go with this one. http://www.hobbycity.com/hobbycity/store/uh_viewitem.asp?idproduct=7028 Has anyone used it before? And will this power supply work for it? http://www.hobbycity.com/hobbycity/store/uh_viewitem.asp?idproduct=6256

I would also recommend a new squid to go along with it. The adapter that comes with it isn't that great IMO, as it didn't have the charging plugs i needed.

That charger comes under about 10 different names. It is a good one, especially for the price. That looks like the correct AC power supply.
Mine came with knock off dean's connectors. It had every charge lead I need and then some.
Glow ignitor
3 pin rx pack adapter & JR 2 pin rx adapter leads.
Alligator clips
The only thing it lacks is a micro deans or traxxas connector.
There is a big difference between the knockoff's and true Dean's ultra plugs. The true Dean's seperate sooo much easier. I equipped my old Dynamite charger with true Dean's.
But for 50 bucks you can't beat that setup!
That squid looks like the ticket if you need all those extras. I may look into one later for simplicity.

Well I placed my order today. Both items were on back order and with international shipping from Hong Kong it could take a while to get here.

i have that charger and i love it! it works well with everything. i am running mine straight up with a 12v DC wall adapter. (you know those plugs with the boxes that plug in the wall?) it works great!

if you have the lipo packs with the bannana plug connections instead of the ones with pre-soldered wires, i created an adapter that can be used to balance these types of batteries.
oooh skematics lol
