On the other hand, if you are a 'cheapie chappie', there are no end of iMax B6 clones on ebay. Lots of features and they cost about £12 – 15 there. I've used one for years, found it works well, and haven't blown anything up.

Yet.

Hi Matt have a look on the Hobbystores.co.uk (Ripmax) website they have a few good chargers which can Ballance and cycle ! not badly priced ! I buy most of my stuff there hope that helps……..mark

I think that it's rather wide of the mark to 'recommend' something unless you actually have used one. I have used the Accucel charger for LiPo packs on the Component Shop website and it's very good. Shame they have no stock at present, but that in itself should indicate something positive.

Not being proficient in the use of lipo batteries I would recommend that a telephone call to Hobbyking customer services as the best way to locate a compatible charger, this method has the added benefit of if something goes wrong you can take it back to the supplier.

Cheap isn't necessarily value for money.

Hi Matt

Sounds ok to me but I don't know much about this new fangled electricky as I'm more of a petrol head. I imagine that if you buy from a reputable source then there should be less chance of buying a cheaply made copy.

You get what you pay for……Buy cheap and buy twice….and all of the other smart ar–d comments.
