I have some Lipo and some Lion in my collection. Are there options on a reasonable balance charger that will do multiple chemistries and multiple cell counts under $200? I currently have a painfully slow charger that will do up to 6s but I really do not like leaving multiple Lipos at full charge overnight or a long period of time while I wait on the rest of the cells to catch up.
Seems like ICGOGO has one for $289 (https://www.aliexpress.com/item/10...o.store_pc_groupList.8148356.7.448530d4FhH6s8) that a certain youtube channel slapped a vinyl sticker on and is adding another $100 or $150 to. But that is a bulk option
And there are some on Amazon or HobbyKing for $100 https://www.amazon.com/ISDT-Touchs...=toys-and-games&sr=1-23&ts_id=2234135011&th=1 but those require a separate power supply.
I know there are people using server power supplies with a fair amount of added circuitry added to mimic a charger but I don't think I am ready to invite risk into building the charger itself. Just looking for an adjustable balance option with fewer steps.
Also have a spouse who will eventually have a strong opinion about the basement filling up with so many voltage specific equipment lol
