I just recently bought a 2s 4000mah battery for my cars and am looking at getting a the Thunder Ac6 charger. The little RTF chargers that I have now are ok for little batterys but they wont be up to the task of charging a 4000mah battery. So does anyone have one and what are your thoughts about? Is it a decent charger for the money? Thanks. www.hobbypartz.com/thac6smbachw.html |

It may have difficulty, I have one and it will charge my 6cell 3300 mah batteries... But it won't charge at more that 2.3 amps, even though it is set at 5 amps, so it takes awhile.
I don't know the charging differences between 2s and 6s.
It rocks my 3s 2200's just fine at 4.4 amps.
Hope this helps.

I've had one for over a year, and like it a lot. I don't have any batteries over 2250 mAh though.

Just remember it's only a 50 watt charger.
It is not very good for larger batteries.
Mine will get REALLY HOT charging above 3s. I won't use it for that any more.
An awesome cheap charger is the Turnigy 8150. It will charge up to 8s at 150 watts. It is DC only. I have two of these.

Thanks 19k and Akent, the biggest battery that I would charge is a 3s. I cant see myself charging anything more unless I get into 1/8 scale racing or get a 500 heli. The AC adapter is also nice so I dont have to buy a power supply.
