Novak by far. Not sure I would trust the other to charge my racing packs.

At the time 3000's were the highest rated batteries. However the charger can not tell a 3000 from a 3800 etc.

Some chargers have an automatic cutoff after so many milliamps as a failsafe feature, the Novak does not. Even if it did you would just "hit the button again".
