Charging A123 Batt. Paks

[sdartt]

I have my 4600 Hypersonic batteries on the way from RCSLOT.com. Question is - what charger are A123 battery user's using?
I am looking at the A123 Systems Sonic Charger, it's has a built in balancer, charges in 15 minutes and is only $93.79.

You MUST use a charger with A123 mode, but most of the latest models have this option.
If your existing charger doesn't have this mode I would get one of the Sonic chargers for you A123s as it looks to be foolproof and designed specially for these cells.

There is good and bad about this being my first FE boat. The bad is I have to do a lot of research and ask a lot of questions, the good is I don't have to make anything I have work with something it may not be compatable with, like the charger. I ordered a Sonic charger today, looks like it fool proof and priced at $94.00. All I will to add is a AC power supply, I live on a large pond in Florida so most of my charging will be at home. Thanks for answering my charging question. A123 batteries seem to be the new thing, will see!
