Default Small AC charger suggestions

Looking for a small AC charger for work. This will be mostly for 1-3S batteries and need maybe 4-5A output at max if I go nuts parallel charging micro batteries.

This is for work, so I don't want a separate power supply. Just an all in one unit.

What I would like is the ability to put in presets. I have a Hitec X1 relabel from Pulse that works, but every time I switch batts, I need to go through the slow user interface.

It looks like the Accucell T100 from HobbyKing might fit the bill. Or the X100.

Just looking for something that's a bit simpler to use.

Mine's buried in a charging case. I have it setup to take DC input from car batteries and the like, but I want something small and AC. I also want to leave it at work. I fly almost every day in our gym and am looking for convenience. That's why I'd like something small but has presets.

Thanks

For charging my smaller lipos (I even use it for my 3S 2200mahs) away from home I use an iCharger106B with a 60W laptop power supply. (The 106B has a 5.5mm X 2.1mm DC input). Small, portable and does the job. Might be more than you want to spend but personally I think it's likely better quality than most of the cheaper AC chargers (it charges better than my Hitec X1 ever did).
