Review on Spektrum Smart S150 AC/DC RC Battery Charger (LiPo, LiIon, LiHV), 1X50W: SPMXC1070 by Kyle Rose

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great value for Lipo or NIMH batteries.

The price is great for a simple charger for a variety of batteries-NIMH to various lipos. You set the type of battery, then the desired amperage/charge rate, then it starts for Spectrum batteries.If you're not using Spectrum brand batteries, no problem, just a quick double press of the button and it starts charging. It's a little tricky at first, however it works easily once you get the hang of it.The actual charger is TINY, while its AC power transformer is almost twice as large and heavier. I don't have lipos to talk about, however its NIMH charging is great, and lets you quick charge, or slow charge for longer battery life.It even has a tiny fan inside to keep it cool. My batteries do not get warm with slow charge; I've no need for fast charge.

Pros
  • Easy to use and works great. I buy this for my scx24.
Cons
  • It is not equipped with a balance board
