I own a onyx 245 and while it is a nice charger it does not have a storage mode, I don't know if the one you linked does, but I doubt it. So my vote would go to the Hitec, but both are decent.


Cheers,

Good choice on the battery. That seems to be the sweet spot between size/weight/capacity/power for a scaler.

The Hitec you've listed is a good option.

I'm running a Thunder AC6 that is similarly priced. Been working mint for 2+ years now with literally hundreds of chargings.

The hitec works great, you can find them on eBay for a little less, I had one for a couple months then upgraded to the x4 to charge 4 batties at once

I'd spring a little more and go with the Venom Pro Duo charger.

I picked up the hitec x1 acdc and so far i love it lets me charge my lipos and the kids nimhs at home or from my truck when were out"thumbsup" also gives me the discharge and storage modes

of course if you want the very best it would be a hyperion

main web page
Hyperion HK Ltd.

this is the one I have, can be used with a battery, power supply, or plugged into an ac socket

memory
charge ant kind of battery
discharge
charge-discharge cycles
storage
pc charts

can even charge 3 2s batteries or 2 3s batteries at the same time with the correct harness

I have two Hyperion E0606i ac/dc chargers, they are very good and accurate. I also have a Prophet duo sport which is good but has no storage and is slightly less accurate. (Verified with a Fluke voltmeter.)

I highly recommend the Hyperion.

Both charges are god entry level chargers. I've got a Hitec (X1 MF), my friends use the Onyx 235 and both work well, I just proffer the Hitec and the specs were a little better. The Hitec keeps my 2S and 3S packs balanced at or below .007v between cells.

TrakPower and Graupner have great, high quality chargers if you want a high end charger with a lot of power, but you don't need to spend much on a good AC/DC charger that balances LiPos well.
