The ICE charger is the best low cost charger imop,I'd stay away from the Integy chargers.

I use an old Integy indi 16x9 very similar to the CE GFX and it has been an excellent charger. I now use it as a power supply for my Ice.

Trust me, Integy has nothing CLOSE to the GFX.Battery care is what makes your batteries last longer, not the charger.Just for backyard bashing I would say MAYBE go with the Integy?

bashing? do you plan on doing lipo at all later down the line? then ICE is a good investment... plus since you bash, and you probably have different types of batts to play with, you can setup different profiles for each...

Ice is AWESOME. You can charge all kinds of batteries as mentioned, even transmitter rechargeables. Think of it as a one time investment that can also pay off the in future. I was in the same situation - but I took the plunge and have never looked back.

if you can SHELL out the extra cash.. check out the MRC Superbrain 989. They are going USED for like 105~125 or so.. and can do every type of battery you can think of as well. Comes with its own 10 amp power supply so you dont need another power supply..

does nicads, nihms, acid, lipo... etc.. motor run in, blah blah blah...

check it out. it may not be "competition" grade, but heck.. its one heck of a charger for any basher.

if you cant buy a charger now, save up a lil, it'll be worth it in the long run.

good luck.

Well, this site has a FS section. Perhaps you'll find a decent deal on an Ice in there.
