14500 battery chargers that dont break!

[tizz]

I have gone through atleast 3 14500 battery chargers. The little slider contact on these cheap chargers keep breaking on me..has anybody found a decent charger that has non-moving contacts? i looked on ebay and all i see are variations of the cheapo-crap.

The Pila chargers are supposed to be good. Just scroll down. Hope that helps!

I've used two AD-103 chargers from madvapes for almost two years now haven't had a single problem yet, not a bad deal for $4.99.

The Pila is an excellent charger. I have one and use it daily.

You might also be interested in the XTAR WP6 II Six Channel Charger. No sliders, but spacers. I have been considering this one for a while as a backup.

Pila is about as good as it gets...pricey but top notch...personally, I have been using the Trustfire TR003, it features 4 independent 500mah charging bays and mine has worked flawlessly with 14500s, 14650s and 18650s...available for around 20 bux from Super T, electronicstiks and other vendors............

The Pila charger is really nice, but I can't bring myself to spend that much on a charger. The Trustfire TR-001 and TR-003 chargers work very well and arnt expensive. The TR-003 can charge 4 batteries at once and the TR-001 charger can charge 2 at once. I have the TR-001 charger and it works very well and charges the batteries pretty fast.
Many ecig vendors sell it for $10-15. If your willing to wait 2 weeks for it, I got mine off eBay for only $8.40 with free shipping. It's def cheaper than you'll find it anywhere else, but it does ship from china so that's why it takes like 2 weeks to get to you

A pila is less than the cost of 2 trippy tips -- and about the same as a lava tank or some other high end versions. And, it is the charger that ECF recommends---last time I checked.

Pila for fast charge, quality and a safety factor as well. It's the best and cheapest charger in it's class. (I read that somewhere on a battery forum.)

The other gear is pretty much cosmetic. As you know, one can get tips for $2 and tanks for $10 (or less).

My 2 cents.
