Ive been looking everywhere for some information.
I fly some indoor electrics, .40-.60 size nitro, and giant scale gassers. Im getting ready to go to Li-ion Rx packs, and want to know what would be a good charger for my Li-ion Rx packs and the smaller Li-poly packs that I use?

Thanks!

I use a Accucycle Elite, it will do up to 3S and do poly and ion, along with NiMH and NiCad

The Elite is a good one

I've used one for years.

Also use a couple Bantam eStation BC-6's

Thanks for the heads up on the charger from HobbyKing...I did notice that you recommend their products an awful lot to just about anybody looking for anything... I would consider it more seriously if it had more reviews on about it.

It's a relatively new product, so you won't find many reviews as of now.

Yeah, I like the way Hobbyking gives us nice deals on everything [8D]

Edit: I must add that r/c products in my country are much more expensive. Reasons are tax and owners of shops that want to make too much money (that is not only my opinion, also many fellow countrymen complain about this). Even if you add shipping costs and import duties, many of the HK products are much cheaper.

The HobbyKing/Turnigy chargers are great, I have two Accucell-6 chargers. They will charge Li-Ion, LiPo, and LiFePO4 cells. I just went to 2S A123/LiFePO4 RX packs, so the latter is coming in handy now.
