Merv, will you be charging LiPo batteries or just NiMH/NiCad? If you are only planning on charging NiMH/NiCad, I have a Duratrax ICE charger that I'm looking to sell for about $50.00. It includes graphing and logging features. Another great overall charger is the Sky Charger from Hobbypartz (HobbyCity also has a very similar one): http://www.hobbypartz.com/skychb6chdup.html. This charger supports LiPo batteries as well and offers output logging to a computer. A computer-controlled charger is definitely the way to go—they are highly accurate, include built-in balancers for LiPo batteries, and generally take up less space than old-school analog chargers.
