DuraTrax Onyx 100 AC/DC Peak NiCad/NiMH Charger

Every once in a while a new product comes along that is so good it raises the bar. Affordability is a given with these chargers, but you also get the kind of features that used to be reserved for competition-level drivers. Five different chargers offer a wide range of options to choose from -- each one tailored to fit your particular needs.

Entry-level electric car or boat modelers looking for charger that can automatically peak both NiCd and NiMH batteries and accept AC or DC input power for the lowest possible price need look no further. Selectable charge currents range from 1 to 4 amps, for cells as small as 600mAh "AAA" and as big sub-C size - good for 1/18th to 1/8th scale models. A small, lightweight built-in AC power supply helps to make this charger easy to take anywhere.

Features

Tiny, lightweight built-in switching AC power supply, so it's very portable and great for small pit areas

Peak detection with automatic trickle charge takes the guesswork out of topping off packs at maximum power

Selectable charge currents let you use the Onyx 100 on models from 1/18 to 1/8 scale

Ideal for electrics -- and also charges receiver batteries for nitro models

Destined to make cumbersome, windup timer-based chargers obsolete!
