Lipo charger help

[shawzy]

Hi guys

I need advice on what charger to get that will charge my 11.1v G&P lipo and balance/discharge it!

its wired to deans so I need the correct connections, will I have to buy those separate?

Can someone give me a make and model?

Thanks

Turnigy accucell, take a look on youtube, lots of tutorials for them which is a big bonus

I also use the above, Accucel 6 - the Imax B6 is fine, but doesn't balance quite as well or have a coolant fan.

I use a Sigma Eq II charger which i recomend superb bit of kit and comes with loads of different leads

A couple of friends have also changed over to these now after seeing and using mine.

Re: Lipo charger help

the other thing i forgot to mention is when you buy them from an auction site they DON't come with a charger lead so add about a £15 to the cost to get one of them.. Cant beat hidden costs

Alright picky:D

Probably me just rushing to get one then, i was a little miffed to recieve the tranformer unit to find it didnt have the three pin to uk plucg lead included, luckily i had one from an old printer.

Re: Lipo charger help

There is a copy of the B6 too. So just be aware it may be this and not an origonal.

Re: Lipo charger help

Midas - is the copy branded with "Imax B6"?

/ Any way to tell difference?

Re: Lipo charger help

Im not sure Gaffa, I went on one site and they used the same picture for both.

There are a lot of chargers though that look to use identical layout shape and size.

There is a new B6 out too by all accounts, looks very nice. Called the professional. I susspect someone will now tell me it's been out a while...lol..Oh well.

Re: Lipo charger help

I have a turnigy 6, never worked out how to use it, have gone back to my cheap one, does the job so far with no problems, as I am paranoid I always charge my batteries in a metal pan with a lid on it tho.

Re: Lipo charger help

It's really simple to use the Accucell 6, and there's even instructions and YouTube tutorials should you get stuck
