lipo charger

[Garry Spice]

im using a muchmore ctx charger (the blue marc rhinard one).i know it says it does charge lipo cells but cant seem to find this option on the menu screen.is there anyone else out there using this charger to do lipo/nimh cells?:eh?:

There is an option to enable it in the charger settings, check the manual to find it.
You will find that it only does a 1A charge though so will take forever on most lipo packs.

Garry,
Come and find me at Fav this weekend and I'll show you mine - oh errr missus.
My Core RC UDC20 charger that is!
Very pleased with it - LiPo, NiMH, NiCD - even Lead Acid!! Comes with Balance leads and everything. Very good IMO

I would like a simple and cheap Lipo-charger for someone who's a RC-beginner and wants to start with Lipo so he doesn't needs other battery-functions.

Any charger that can be recommended?
Off course balancing is a plus but not absolutely necessary.
With modern Lipo's you can keep your battery ok, by balancing it once every month or 14 days, I guess.
