View Full Version : Triton+dapter or whole new charger? (for A123's)

I finally took the jump to A123's, and I read that for Rx packs it's no necessary to balance them. I looked at the Dapter to use with my Triton. Would that combo allow me to charge them fairly fast, or would I be better if I buy another (A123 compliant) charger? (I'm thinking here about the Hyperion EOS0610i).
Just remember I only going to use it for RX packs. I don't see any electric helis coming this way for a looooong time (well, may be a Mini Titan or Trex450:YeaBaby:)
Thanks for any info,
Fernando

If you are only charging 2 cell A123 packs, get this charger.

Does 2S through 6S, A123 (Li-Fe), Li-Ion, and Li-Poly. This is the lowest cost A123 charger available. You can optionally connect the e-Station PB-6 balancer to this charger if you like down the road.

Thanks for the reply, I'll keep that one as an option, but to be honest it doesn't look like it would be much different than getting the lipodapter and using the Triton (that I already have).
According to the specs it doesn't look like it will charge those A123's faster than the combo I mentioned and still no balancer.
As I said I'll keep it in mind, but if I'm going to need another charger I rather spend the money and get one with the whole shebang and sell my triton ( I guess:dontknow)
