[NSRCA-discussion] Charger

[Bob Richards]

I have version 2 of the Hyperion Duo, and I love it. Each output is 180 watts (the newer version is a lot more than that).
 
Still, I use my polycharge 4 a lot, especially for the smaller packs. Great for foamy batteries that don't have taps (this charger does not balance). 
 
I still use my Accucycle Elite, mainly for Nicads now. It will also do LiIon and Lipo up to 3 cells.

Unfortunately as far as I know it will not charge 2 cell packs without a 
balance tap, like you can buy for the indoor foamys.

If you fly bigger helis then you need to be able to charge 2 6 cell 
packs.  The Hyperion Duo is the only one that does that as far as I know.
