which charger would you get? The duratrax charger or the MRC Super Brain 959? I was thinking the Superbrain, but i dont know how well they work, etc. What would be your choice?

btw, its this charger for the duratrax:

This is the Superbrain:

so you are mostly leaning at the Intellipeak, from what i get. I have plenty of time in between heats/races to charge the batteries, so time really isnt a matter. Also, does it really matter that NiMH batteries are charged with under 6V?

Anyone else have any opinions on this?

well, i have alot of time between races, but i dont know about 45 minutes or more. That seems like a LONG time! I guess i could handle it if i had more than one of the batteries though.

Anyone else have opinions? Looks like most lean for the Intellipeak.

All is quiet in the General forum...

Come on guys, haha, some of you have to have experience or know someone with experience with one of these :thumbsup:

i was looking for that search button! I knew i was missing something!
Haha, thanks for the tip.

im pretty sure that Duratrax has a recall out on them. maybe not all of them though. i used to have the pulse charger but kept messing up, so i got a new one (Integy 16X9). only one i would reccomend is the digital, which didnt seem to be that bad. JMO

it all depends on how much time you have between heats really. most of the time i have 45minutes to an hour to play with between heats. when its like this, ill start charging the pack for the 1st heat 40 min. beforehand. after that is over, i start charging the next pack for the 2nd. same throughout the rest of the day.

if you immediately put another batt. on the charger after one finishes, you shouldnt have a problem. i'll repeak right before the race if the batt has sat with a full charge for more than 10 minutes. thats my method anyway.
