Here is what I found
D300 is a great price.
Not sure if I can get it or not though.

Even at that price, I would still buy the Hota instead 😉
To me heres the pros/cons, well comparison. from my knowledge

d300:
50 watts more both AC and DC
Channel power sharing
USB out

Hota:
Higher balance current
50 watts less on DC 100 less on AC
wireless charging (my phone doesn't do wireless sadly)

I think you made a good choice i've had mine for almost 2 years now and it's been almost perfect for what i currently do which is mostly charging 2 - 4s single packs on both channels. And i trust GA vs other brands like how i trust Traxxas, Horizon brands and Associated more than i do others.

I would trade that loss in wattage for a better balance current. Are you ever really going to need that much wattage? Maybe you will. But I don't really need what I have with mine only on AC. I have a DC PSU now though, so I will never need any more.
 
True
Now that I'm charging up to 4s now my t200 caps out at about 6.4A so i mean it's not that bad... 1.6C. I prefer to charge at 2 but I'm not racing 1/8 so I'm fine with either. Really hard choice between the 2.

In that situation, yeah, it would be a tough decision. I would still buy the Hota and an AC power supply though in that case.
