Hello friends of oople.

My old peak charger is on its last legs. so i need a new one.

I want an ac/dc charger that does lipo and nimh, also lipo balancing.

and a charge rate of 5 amps or over.

and i have around £60 to play with.

Could anyone help me.

Thanksamillion Dommo

I bought one of these for my stepson
http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/store/uh_viewItem.asp?idProduct=7028&Product_Name=Turnigy_Accucel-6_50W_6A_Balancer/Charger_w/_accessories

works great and balance charges very good.

there is a guy on ebay that sells them new as well from hertfordshire called nilesinstall at £30.

here it is

might be of some use

forgot to mention you would need the AC adapter as well

this one is good value for money too.

yes it is but you need the AC adapter which is about 15 quid extra

They work faultlessly and are a bargain. There's no need to spend any more on any other charger unless you need more than 5amps!

The one i bought from hobbyking didn't, but the lipo's i bought from UKRC on ebay did, so no probs.
