I'm using the Piranha digital peak charger and its great. I got it for $40 off ebay and it will even charge single cells so I can charge my igniter with it too. It has all the bells and whistles of some of the expensive chargers but without the price tag. I have talked to other people since getting mine and they all like them too.

I've been using the Duratrax ICE charger for a couple of years and I love it. It's easy to program it to charge anything at any rate, including Li-Po, and you can store 10 battery profiles on it. The only downside for me is that it's a DC charger, but I made a power-supply for about $10 so that took care of that.

I use this guy for my 7.2v battery for my rotostart and my Elite 1500 6 cell battery for my RC18T. Has been working great for a year and counting. It also has a 5 year warranty on it.

Here it is:

1 step down from the one in last post but it charges faster. The guys at the track were upset with the time of the plus LCD version. You can plug in a multi meter if you want a LCD read out.

I'm using a hobbico mkII. now, i had to make tamiya leads for the 7.2, and it only does a max of 2.0 amps. but it has fail-safes, it beeps when its hit a charge of 95%-98%, plus it quick charges LiPo's as well as ni-cd's and ni-mh's.
it also cost me $50 CDN. it doesn't have any programing problems, like the tritron has, which ive heard cause major headaches if your not an electrical engineer. lol. a nice, straight forward machine, that isnt costly and does the job well.
