Hi guys. Finally got my DX7 ordered yesterday so all I need now is a sim and a charger...What charger would be a good all rounder (at about £60-£80) for the trex 450 charging flightpower evo2 2500mah lipo's?

Thanks

hi i have two chargers a bantam bc6 and a pro peak sigma eq both very good balance chargers but a good all round balance charger i find is the pro peak sigma and nearly 50 cheaper than bantam but u pay yore money and take ur choice barry

I can recomend the cellpro 4s chargre, it's plug and play, fool proof. here's the charger Aurorra Ltd - specialists in electric propulsion systems supplying Lipos, Chargers, Brushless Motors, deans connectors, ESC's and testing equipment we believe in... and the power supply Aurorra Ltd - specialists in electric propulsion systems supplying Lipos, Chargers, Brushless Motors, deans connectors, ESC's and testing equipment we believe in...

I have 2x Cellpro 4's which have been giving me great service for about 4 years. I have just ordered a BC6 from HK (19 quid delivered) and a split charge board. This is to complement my peak pro charger, mostly for charging my gliders (NiMHs).

Will I need to buy a power adapter for the pro peak or does it come with it?? What other things would I need? Sorry for all the questions..

Each to their own Mike

I have the Imax B6 and tho it just about does the job, its balancing function is awful. Cells readings are inaccurate (-+0.20 out) and it lacks internal cooling which often brings it to melting point before it gets anywhere near complete.

I've replaced it with the Turnigy Accucel which does a much better job!

Out of stock at the mo here, but can be found in the UK...
Turnigy Accucel-6S Balance Charger Discharger

With this power supply...
Ripmax - Power Supply 240>13.8v20A AutoEur from Pro-Peak - O-IP2000/EUR

These are 6s chargers OP, so capable of charging multiple 3s packs at the same time.

Cant fault my accucell 6's neither,stay cool even when charging big 6s packs

Would I be able to charge more than one pack on the pro peak, cellpro or turnigy chargers?

im using a LI-PRO quad 6 which is great as i can charge /balance 4 packs at a time but only good for 3s packs as it only 50w per charger and i have a bantum bc6-10 for my 6s packs im very happy with both chargers

The pro peak and bantam are either 240v or 12 built in barry
