I'd say excellent customer service, same day response on Sunday and Father's Day. Glad you have the information you were looking for.
One more thing to notice on that is that it's 1.6A balance, which is quite a bit. Has to help with those packs that get off a bit from cell to cell. I don't think any of my main chargers have that high of a rate. My Hitec D7 seems to fight for a long time on some of my packs.
I saw that too but wasn't sure if that was total per channel or what. Your Hitec D7 is listed as 300ma per cell and I have the Hitec X2 700 which is listed as 800ma per cell where the Hota D6+ is just listed as 1600ma x 2, but it does't say per cell. So I'm not sure if Hitec is actually per channel or what the deal is. It would be interesting to see the balancing difference between this and mine.
I tried to find another Hitec X2 400 a few times, most sell for the same price used that I paid for mine new.
Yeah, that one is twice the wattage, but the same current on both ports as the D7. Still, if you have the power supply to support it, you can charge a 5000mah 6S at 3C safely without hitting the wattage ceiling, if the pack can take it. Probably better to use as a parallel charger at least.
Hi everyone!
I am a new RC-enthusiast (bought an ARRMA Typhon 4X4 3S BLX Speed Buggy) from Europe and I am now in the need of a charger (and battery).
To be honest after reading through this thread I am a little overwhelmed by all the options.
So please recommend me a charger while keeping the following points in mind:
1. AC/DC - I don't have a PSU so I want to be able to plug it in the socket at home
2. 80-150€ price range
3. at least 2-channel with ability to charge 2 5000-6000mAh 50c batterys (at a reasonable speed ~1-2h?)
Thanks in advance!
PS: I found this charger (HTRC C240 Duo AC/DC 150W/240W 10A - 2-Channel)

I am from Germany - sadly I don't have a hobbyshop nearby.
The SkyRC T200 sounds nice - will look into it!
If you want a 2 channel ac/dc charger get at least 300-400 watt charger. You do not want an underpowered charger when you get into high cell packs then have to buy a more powerful charger.Hi everyone!

I was going to suggest that charger in your other thread. The reviews I have seen for it are decent. Just remember that on ac power it will only do 75w per channel @ 10a, but if connected to a sufficient dc power supply it will output 120w per channel but also @ 10a. It has a touch screen display, lipo cell meter and an IR meter, these are always a plus. Just change out the connector on the leads to your connector of choice and should be good to go.
Oh nice, I didn't know you could do that with this charger.
A 3S 5000 at 1C takes 55w/5A, so should be good with charging 2 of those. 2C is twice that, so it can do 1 at 2C as well.
Nice review as always. To the point with no fluff.Register and gain access to Discussions, Reviews, Tech Tips, How to Articles, and much more - on the largest Arrma RC community for RC enthusiasts that covers all aspects of the Arrma-RC brand!
