DO NOT BUY ANYTHING FROM THIS COMPANY.

Traxxas batteries don't even fit in here. Inside is a plastic protrusion that prevents the battery from being inserted into the charger. They take a commission for the replenishment. I RECEIVED A 1 CENT REFUND. 30.00 BUY.

Pros
  • Great Price
Cons
  • Clarity

Worked great! Works great for chargers

Works great for charging my son's NiMH batteries for his Traxxas E-Revo 1/16. A full charge takes about 30 minutes, which is about 15 minutes of driving time. It will most likely move to LiPo at some point in the future, but this charger will suffice until that upgrade is made.

Pros
  • Absolute Legend
Cons
  • Appearance

Universal charger for power tools and hand tools

Great entry level charger. This should have been initially included by Traxxas in their RTR iD kits. Charges 5,6,7 batteries. That means it also works with 1/18 scale Latrax vehicles, which is also a bonus. The 4 megapixel 12V DC charger that comes with the Traxxas Ready to Run iD trucks only charges 6 and 7 batteries. In my opinion buy this and a 3000mah NiMh 8.4v battery with a standard Traxxas truck and you'll be a lot happier. Highly recommended for basic charging needs.

Pros
  • Sleek design
Cons
  • unreliable

Do not buy! in Power & Hand Tools

Complete piece of shit. Have gone through 3 of these things and none of the supercharged ones. Traxxas only have a 30 day warranty so I'm glad I tested them the same day I received them and found that they flash red once the batteries are connected. Flashing red indicates an error that cannot be cleared by disconnecting the charger or batteries. Now we'll probably have to resort to the 12V car charger that came with the truck. It makes no sense that you have a 12V cigarette charger for a toy…

Pros
  • Everything is OK!
Cons
  • Nothing

Must have for E Revo!

I don't know why Traxxas is doing this other than to piss off their customers into buying more product from them... but whatever the reason, this charger is a must have for 1/16 E- Revo owners ! For some strange reason, the truck comes with a cigarette lighter style charger, meaning you'll need to charge the batteries in your full size car ;-) or install something to enjoy your new truck. I immediately ordered it from Revain and have been using it ever since! It plugs into the wall and charges…

Pros
  • Happy so far
Cons
  • Hard to say

Absolutely awful! I bought a Traxxas Skully that came with a car charger rather than a wall charger to charge the battery (because we all live in our cars and using a car charger instead of a wall charger for Traxxas was smart), so I was forced to buy this one to buy is an extra charger so I can connect the battery to the outlet. The steps are clear. Do not connect the battery to the charger first. First connect the charger to the wall. CHECK OVER! Then if it is red, connect the battery to the…

Pros
  • Perfect for outdoor activities
