charger/discharger/equalizer

[xx4 fanatic]

Replacing all of my old gear. What do you guys sugest I buy from your experience.:confused: Looking for highend stuff. Running nimh. I know theres alot out there to choose from i dont know whats the best quality.

Equalizer wise, smart tray SE from Novak. DOes everything you need from an equalizer and is the cheapest of the ones in the high end of the market currently available.

The Eagle CDC is a brilliant charger/discharger/cycler and runs on both 12v and 240v, i will most likely buy another one when needs must.

I've got an Eagle CDC Ver 6B (blue screen) for sale if your interested! PM me for details.

I use the LRP tray to equalise my cells (LRP 4200 Big Momma's) - no problems and a 1/4 of the price of the Smart Tray too.

Best charger I have had to date is Much-More Cell Master (this is having used ProTrak and Eagle CDC before).

Much More CTX-D is a very good high-end discharger too. If time is not of the essence though one of the cheaper boards with a cutoff works just as well in reality, I use the Robitronic one.

[trekkerkk]

for charging i would recommend the nosram charger,does lipos ni-mh,future proof,
as for discharger i use the much more ctx-d discharger,
does most types off discharge and equalizes at the same time,
used it for the last 12months superb

[bigred5765]

[mark christopher]

spintec icc far better than the rest and you dont have to throw it away like the treinity when/if it fails, and im not sponsored by em

[bigred5765]

why throw it away ??thats may be why trinity changed uk suppliers
and guess what we are lol

[gramey]

:) Havn't used the Much More charger or discharger, had the Eagle CDC 6B (there's now a version 7 out) and others, Spintec ICC currently. Slightly low 10 amp discharge rate but that aside best charger out there.:)

[rcracer]

i was thinking of getting a pro-track and nobody has mentioned them :(

[mark christopher]

why throw it away ??thats may be why trinity changed uk suppliers

[bigred5765]

[josh_smaxx]

Ah, cool, so it does last a while then :D

[bigred5765]

we only just got it, so ill keep you up to date, but cant really see it running out quick and not only is it a discharger but a equaliser as well ,its tell you all the info on each cell and the pack in a digital read out,

[josh_smaxx]

[mark christopher]

one problem i have with the trinity one is my cells dont fit in it!! i have em wired for a spintec icc which charges dischargers and eqaulizes each cell (yes does all three to each cell )

the spintec charger discharger is the ultimate but u need a mortgage to buy it. the one in the picture only discharges a pack though not seperate cells

[josh_smaxx]

Ye, the spintec ICC is the most expensive charger i have ever found, £250 off MiM, out of my league at the moment :D

[Southwell]

Nah, Competition electrics turbo is £360 ;)

[bigred5765]

Nah, Competition electrics turbo is £360 ;)

isnt that the size of a small house though,lol:D

[josh_smaxx]

Ah yes i forgot about Competition Electronics, can you call a turbo matcher a charger? :D

[sosidge]

turbo matcher a charger? :D

Not really. But you can call a TurboCharger a charger.:)

[josh_smaxx]

The turbomatcher does charge cells though.

And the tubocharger 35 GFX works out at £211 from them.
