Hey all i have been using E-Cigs for about a year now, totally dropped the burning brands after just 1 week of using the E-Cig (awsome). My main issue is that I hate all the cheapo chargers that are out there. They go bad very quickly or never really do a very good job to begin with. Does anyone know where I can get an actual GOOD charger for my batteries?

I have pretty much changed everything i use over to the RCR123A LiFePO4 3.0v batteries. The chargers are all the cheap kind and im kinda getting spent on having to replace my charger everytime i order new batteries or even before. I would prefer something that wouldnt limit me to just charging 2 at a time as my wife uses them as well but i can make it work with just 2. I would also like to have the ability to be able to change from the LiFePO4 to another type if needed. I dont even mind shelling out some bucks as long as its something that will charge properly and last for a change. Does anything like this exsist?

I do a lot of RC hobby stuff and have chargers that are really nice pro style chargers, but they are made for a totally different type of adaptor and have nothing that will work for button style batteries or even close. Im sure i could rig something up to make it work but thats gonna be a pain and my wife isnt confortable using my chargers cause you have to set the voltage, Amp Hours, and cell count, as well as mess with the balancer settings.

Any help or pointers would be much appreciated.

I have a good RC charger that would work great, i just gotta figure out how to tell it or trick it into charging at least 2 batteries at once without it putting 6v into each cell instead of 3v. Maybe an external balancer of some type.

Shouldn't be difficult to make an adapter, if your charger is a balance charger it should work fine. Grab a batt holder at R/S and mod a spider from an old R/C pack.
