Hey guys, what do you think of this charger? I am talking about the TP-610C. Anyone owns it yet?

It looks great, it includes balancer..!
I think,you can't beat it for $130.

Please advise if someone has that charger, because I'm thinking to get it.

Thanks

It must be a new charger for them where did you find it on their site?

Hi,

I don't own a 610 yet but I have used one recently at our indoor flying sessions in PA. We charged up a few different 3S 2100 and 2200 MAH packs. It did a great job. I like the internal balancer feature and the fact that it will charge all types of batteries being NiMh, NiCad and others as well. And the fact that the balancer has ports for the other popular connectors...that is very nice.

The 610 is priced well and it is nice and small for field use and packing.

I have 1 on order at this point. Can't wait to get it. I think per its price it should do well. It has a lot of features vs. other chargers in the same price range. For the guy who is all 2S and 3S packs and slightly larger ones I'd say this is a great charger. Yes it will do up to 6S but a lot of guys are only flying smaller stuff. To me this is the perfect intermediate charger. For larger MAH packs the 1010C to me is the king of the hill.

I also have the TP 535 and 1010C too. I like the 1010 and 610 since I can see what the pack is doing while charging. The 535 is nice but no screen to see what’s up with the packs.

Hope this helps.

That's useless for me as it only does 6s Since I converted my T-Rex 600 to 8s I only fly 8s, 10s, and 12s helicopters.

Once you move up to larger helicopters those small ones are just not that much fun any more. I now have an E550, two E620’s, Raptor 90 EP conversion, and a T-Rex 600 on 8s.

Ron,

thank you for the constructive information. I think I am going to get the charger also.
