I am in the market for a new charger and have narrowed it down to these two. Any thoughts on either from personal use? Good and bad of each?

Both are great chargers. The Junsi chargers can only be powered by using a DC power supply. The HiTec can do both AC and DC (both normal wall plug and DC power supply)
If your racing Id go with the Junsi. If your racing, and doing other areas of RC, and don't want to get a external power supply, Id go with the HiTec. Out of those 2 chargers.
My uncle has a 308 Duo himself. Pretty nice charger. Does 30 amps and 8s. 456 would do 45 amps and 6s.
I use a SkyRC T200 myself. Perfect for my uses. Charges 2 2s lipos at the same time at 10 amps no problems. Looking to getting an upgrade tho. Looking into the gensacearespammers D300 or the Hota D6 Pro for my next one.
My requirements for chargers is having enough power for your charging and discharging uses/needs, IR reader, cell voltage reader, and a balance/storage/discharge mode for batteries. And a LCD or color screen will also be nice. And a system that is easy to navigate and use.

I have a few chargers and just got this one from rcplanet. I really like it. It was right there at the $100 mark(about 120-130) and it has dc or ac input, reads IR which is important now that my batteries have been around a few years, and it can do 2 batteries at once. It’s very compact as well.
iCharger gets my vote, other things to consider here:
Not sure on your wants, needs, and cares, but I'm pretty sure the SKYRC T1000 is the OEM charger for the Hitec RDX 1000. Compare the specs, and you could potentially save $80.
