[link=http://www3.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin/wti0001p?&I=LXWTD9&P=ML]Charger[/link] That is the cheapest ACDC peak charger I know of.

And just look for the battery that has the most mah that you can afford.

The charger is really not the place to be cheap. You'll just end up spending more money later on a better piece. I'd recommend to save up some cash and buy a charger that will charge everything including Lipo and LiFe. I personally like my Venom pro charger. Been great to me for about 3 months now.

Although I agree that you will be buying a new charger later on if you stay in rc, but not when it's your first electric. Just get a cheap charger for now. It doesn't make sense when your only charging 6 or 7 cell nimh batteries, and the charger costs half as much as your car.

Don't get a timed charger they do not charge the battery fully. The one I linked to replaced the one that you linked to.
