battery problems

I have heard good things about this charger:
MRC Superbrain 959

Where can you get it? Why your LHS (Local Hobby Shop).

It should work with your bits from what I have been told from Blind batteries. If you charge at .5 amps. (30 minute runtimes *drool*)

i wont be paying for it. it was supposed to be a christmas present along with the car but it never came in the mail. so my parents said they would buy me another one but i know they wont buy a really expensive one. i have a charger for my 1/10 scale stampede. heres what it says one the charger: charges 1500 mah batteries
input: 110 ac or 12v dc
output: 2.4A, 7.2 or 8.4 only
charge time: 25 min.
trickle: 50 mah

my question about this charger is would it charge a 5 cell battery pack or would it be too much for the pack? thanks for your help

Dude, you can find used ones on ebay for $30. New ones are $54 (according to my local HS).

And no, that one you have for your stampede wont work. BUT if you got ahold of the one I suggest. You could peak charge your stampede batteries as well (you would get more runtime and power).

Maybe then sell that one you have for like $5 (thats all its really worth) or so on ebay to help recover the money you spent on the superbrain.

i dont like ebay cuz you have to bid or use buy it now and i would rather buy one new from a company not used from someone i dont know

You still have to pay shipping which will make it about even as your LHS with tax. Thats the best I can offer if your not willing to go ebay.
