ok... so i lied...

j/k

Dose anyone have a particular peak charger that they like? (under $50) One that dosent false peak and charges the batts right all the time.

[XXXER]

You booger.LMAO, i have heard great thing of the Mega Peak from Dynamite, and have you looked at the dec 00 issue? they have a budget charger shootout

[Aylien]

The Duratrax Pirahna he has is in that issue. They gave it a solid review, you must have a defective charger Joe. I've got the same one and haven't had any problems so far. I would give em another shot. On the other hand, if I had to get a new charger, I'd definitely go Novak. Rhino or Millennium. Only bad thing is, they specify you must use a power supply, a battery charger won't work. You need either the N-Power or another PS capable of supplying 7amps I think.

I have the Indi 16x2. It can charge 4-7 cell batteries. It has amperage from 0.5 to 4.5 Amps(fully adjustable). It can charge 3000's too. I really like it. I think it is like 70.00 dollars or so.

[JoeTheShmoe]

ya, thats the one i got at the hobby shop the other day (indi 16x2) It seems pretty neat. Do i have to charge the batt. before i run it thru the "conditioning" mode?

[Hawkeye]

The new Duratrax InteliPeak pulse charger looks very good, infact it's on my christmas wish list! http://www.rccaraction.com/ubb/smile.gif

[LosiMan3456]

I am not sure I havent used it much. I usually run the batt out with my car and then condition but i am not sure. It doesnt specify either in the manual so i guess it doesnt really matter. Hope u enjoy it. Oh BTW did u get the one that charges the 3000's too or the older model. I have the older model. Not that old though

I have the same charger, indi 16x2 pro, it does the 3000's also.
When i use the conditioning mode i just plug the battery in and let the charger figure it out and it has always worked.
I dont think you can find a better charger for the money,you won't regret getting it.
The duratrax intellipeak chargers look to be relabeled indi chargers, including the 16x2 pro.

[The_Ne-Go-She-Ate-r]

id say that the duratrax parana is the best choice!

[mike]

for a sport charger under $50 its ok,but for racing and to really take good care of the battaries, if you can afford it you really should get a better quality charger, even if you are not racing but plan on being in this hobby for awhile you would be doing your self a favor by getting somthing better.

[B3 Bomb]

I had a Duratrax Pirahna but the only bad thing is the current is not ajustable and you could cook steak on it after two charges!
Over all it is a very good charger. No bad experiences here.

[J mAn]

i have one, i don't like it, it gets way too hot and sometimes false peaks. Spend a few extra bucks and get a beter charger.

I think you should go with the Super Brain 819. You can do back2back charges. And it is real good for the money.
