2 good or 4 decent?

[sorbee711]

Ok, I've got a HPI Sprint right now, but am thinking of getting an E-MAXX. So I want to get pairs of batteries in case I get the E-MAXX. I'm going to get this charger: http://www2.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin/wti0001p?&W=000604937&I=LXAVN1&P=K

And wasn't sure if I should get: http://www2.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin/wti0001p?&W=000604937&I=LM0756&P=K

2 good batteries or

4 of these. I'm leaning towards 2 good ones, but I'm not sure that I won't get more time out of the 4 decent ones. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks.

im not sure if the superbrain 959 is a good charger. i heard lot of overheat and false peak problems about it. maybe you should look at the 969. i heard its better than the 959.

if it my choice....i'd get the sanyo cell. cos on the peak batts. you dont know what cells in it. sanyo makes good cell so maybe it will last longer. i used to have the peak/team orion maxx pack 2400 and it didnt last long. after few month it just went dead.

Okay, I don't want to get the MRC if it is having issues. What about Duratrax chargers like: http://www2.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin/wti0001p?&I=LXCLD5&P=7

The first charger in your list I've heard nothing but good about it. I have the second one you list and have had nothing but good with it. I agree with what Fangkeh says about the cells. I had the Orion ones and their cheap for a reason.

I would get the first duratrax charger you listed and two of these batteries...

I believe duratrax makes a charger that can charge 2 packs at once, which is definitely an advantage for a twin-battery truck. The MRC 969 also charges 2 at once, though you might want to get a better power supply so you could push the full 4.5 amps for each battery.
