Highest amps under 100 bucks

[siberianhusky]

Depends on the watts of the charger, if those are 4 50 watt chargers you can charge 4 2s packs at higher amperage with the cellpro than the 50 watt chargers.
You can use that cellpro in two distinct halves and charge 2 2s packs on each port with the right connectors.
Plus you can log your charging through a usb port and upgrade firmware though usb.
That 4 port one is only a 50watt/port charger, would put out a max of 3.5 amps into a 4s pack, that would take way too long to charge at the pond.
Be great if all you run is 2s packs or as I think you said a great charger for getting the packs ready to go for the day.
I wish I had enough packs to not really have to worry about charging too much at the pond, fact is I'll have to have packs on charge right from the first run, and probably run my nitro boats while waiting sometimes!
Too many boats now! Simple if all you have is the one!
I'm just about over the expensive part of electric boats, will have all pretty good quality support equipment, you can get started cheap enough but once the addiction really sinks in....

You think you have it bad...i have 7 boats and like 40 other rc's!

Looks like you've got the Z as well, with me it's 4 bikes!
You must also be a member of the "he who dies with the most toys wins" club!
I seem to always be able to justify keeping something and buying a new one! Got away with the second truck with the argument that it's the exact same model and I'll be able to use one for parts if the other dies! Grin! Now I don't have to unload my work truck to go run the boats!
Including the 2 sailboats I think I have 12 or 13 now, just picked up an OPC project hull for 20$, need a motor for the JAE mini sprint, another 200 amp esc for a P mono............

Yea that's nice but you can't charge 4 2s packs at one time @ 5 amps like the 4 port charger this realy speeds things up when charging packs to go out and play.
O and i have a thunder power 10 amp charger if i had to have only one charger it would be the 4 port charger over any one 10 amp charger any day!

that charger listed is a 200watt charger
I think it could handle 4 2s packs at 5a
but I don't need to charge 4 2s packs at the same time, I'm looking to charge 5s packs faster than my 50watt charges I have now

Looks like for 5s packs you will need a high amp charger for sure enless they are small packs?

They are 5000mah packs..
I'm not sure how many watts is needed to charge these at 2c and 3c ?

I have this charger. Just received it last wk. Ck the spec out and for $104 a lot of bang for the buck.

Going to need more than 10 amps most likely!

When you plug 2 5s packs into that cellpro it connects them internally as a 10s pack then charges that at a maximum of 260 watts if you can give the charger 15 volts at 25 amps.
Would charge at a bit over 1c, if you plugged one in you would get a 2c charge rate.
With the right connectors you can charge 4 2s packs as 1 8s pack at 2c and balance them.
Thats all with 5000mah packs.

that is nice, but only 6a per port

[Brushless55]

400W 20A charger for only 78bucks
I should be able to charge 5s packs at 17-18 amps

[sailr]

yeah, if you can ever get one! I've been watching that charger for months. Always out of stock.

[Brushless55]

I did their email thing... so we shall see

[siberianhusky]

As Sailr said, think it'd been out of stock since January, was one of the ones I was looking at. That place either is doing some serious sales of has supplier problems.
