Need Battery Charger

[bigpman]

Not sure if this is the correct place for this, as it is a 2 part question:

1. I need a new battery charger that will charge both 18350, 500 and 650s. I don't want to spend an arm and a leg, but want something decent. Below $30 preferably. Which one is the best for the money?
2. Where should I purchase it for the best price?

Thanks for the help everyone!!

The Xtar chargers have been getting good reviews lately. I bought one about a month ago to replace my Trustfire TR-001, which lasted about 2 years with a couple of minor repairs during that time. The xtar seems to be built better, has more features, and will accommodate all the battery sizes you listed. Since I haven't had it very long yet, I can't really say how it'll do in the long run though.

Intellicharger i4 by Nitecore works great. http://www.nitecore.com/productDetail.aspx?id=18

Charges 2 at a time: http://www.rtdvapor.com/online-store/battery-chargers/nitecore-intellicharger-i2-detail

Charges 4 at a time: http://www.rtdvapor.com/online-store/battery-chargers/nitecore-intellicharger-i4-detail

Both Nitecore, very good quality.

The xtar mentioned above doesn't look like it will handle 18350.

Fast tech sells that for around $20, Amazon has it for around $25, if you look around some even include the car charger. I have prime and will probably get it from Amazon. I have read many good things about the Xtar also.

I was looking at the xtar, didnt even notice the nitecore. Looks like the nitecore is going to be the better choice. It doesnt even require spacers for the 350, very cool. Price is right on the money.

Thanks all

It'll do 18350's too. It comes with screw on spacers to handle short batteries.

+1 for the Nitecore charger. I have one and I absolutely love it. It charges everything! I've used it for 18350, 18500, 18650, 26500, 26650, 14500, and plain old AA rechargeable batteries. It's very versatile.

+1 for fasttech. I just got my first order from them today. I got a couple lightning charging cables for my ipad, a mouse pad, and a 30ml bottle of Dekang E-liquid. Their prices are super cheap ($13 for all of that) and their shipping was fast. While shipping is always free (from China), I opted to upgrade it and it cost me 26 cents! Let me say that again. Shipping FROM CHINA was 26 cents! I live in Texas and I got my order in a week. Needless to say, I'm pretty happy with them and will use them again.

Ended up ordering the i4 v2 from Amazon, it was the best deal with shipping at $22 and I should have it this week.
