I want to get a peak charger. Currently i plan on using it for my bits. but i also wanna get into the mini-x mini-z arena so it should be a worthwhile purchase.

is this charger a good one?

I dont know if its good or if its cheap, but it seems like a very capable charger. I want one now

I use that charger to charge anything from Bits to camcorders, and - of course, my 1/10 RC batteries!
The flexible 1-8 cell capability and digital alphanumeric display are rare in this price range. I'm not too crazy about most other duratrax products, but this one is a winner. I bought it earlier this summer as a cheap hold-over when my "main" batttery charger broke.
