Nigel Finch Posted June 5, 2014 Share Posted June 5, 2014 Hi all, looking to get a sensible priced charger to take to the field to charge my 2200 3 cell lipo,s off a car battery. Any thoughts on one to fit the bill. Would be good to get some batteries re charged and Max my flying time. thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete B Posted June 5, 2014 Share Posted June 5, 2014 Plenty of choice about now, Nigel, depending on your budget and whether you might want to charge more than one pack at a time. My experience is with the Turnigy Accucel-6, one of which has served me well for several years. The Imax B6AC seems to be popular and can be used on 12v or AC, which eliminates the need for a separate power supply at home. You can get an idea of the range of chargers to consider here - other retailers are available! Pete Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevo Posted June 5, 2014 Share Posted June 5, 2014 TBH, If you look at all the single programmable chargers there's very little to choose from. The display and menu options are absolutely identical across quite a few manufacturers. I've used an Elysium Pro for a couple of years, never let me down on anything I've thrown at it, LiPo, LiFe, NiMh or Pb! Charges from the car or from 240V.

Nigel Finch Posted June 5, 2014 Author Share Posted June 5, 2014 Thanks for suggestions. To clarify I have a very good charger at home this is just a quick fix for a battery or two at the field thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

malcolm woodcock 1 Posted June 5, 2014 Share Posted June 5, 2014 With the length of time for re-charging, I'd invest in more batteries, so that I'd have plenty to fly with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
