I am on the brink of purchasing the HE-PKG2 set up from Duralite for my Fury Extreme. This will be my first experience with Li-Ion batteries and I definitely don't want to screw things up when it comes to charging. I currently use a Hobbico Accu-Cycle Elite charger. It is pretty straight forward for my NiMH packs. I am curious if it would be acceptable to use it to charge the 4000 mah pack that comes with the Duralite package. If not, then I don't mind purchasing the charger that comes with the HE-PKG2 system.
Thanks for your responses

Get the Duralite charger for YEARS of trouble free service out of your DL Packs. Keep it safe, simple and fun.

Using any other charger than the Duralite charger will void your warranty on the batteries. As Will said, for trouble free charging, Get the Charger that Duralites has to charge the batteries. It is plug and forget charger.

Sounds like the Duralite charger is the way to go. I have no problem with that. Thanks for pointing out the warranty issue as well. I look forward to getting more than 2 safe flights out of my pathetic NiMH pack too!
Thanks again.
