This is my first Hobby Grade Charger and I am excited about that. It is multi-chemistry and is an AC/DC Charger. I probably won't use it at the field or with anything but LiPo batteries, but it is nice to know that I have options with this nice little charger.

I bought this at the same time as my E-flite UMX J-3 Cub, but didn't have time to do a proper Lipo Charger Review until now.

Review Notes:

Pros
- Battery storage discharge setting with Automatic Shut-Off
- Charges 1S-6S batteries
- Nice digital display
- Easy to use interface
- Efficient fan system to keep it cool
- Great value!

Cons
- You have to buy accessories to utilize its 1S charging capability

Overall you can't lose with this little balance charger in my honest opinion it makes it fun to do some balance charging with your batteries. That is unless you need to charge HUGE 6S batteries.
