I was thinking of a new charger as well. The only one I have is the tenergy that came with my first mini kit, I guess it is OK but I'm sure it is middle of the road as it was included in the kit!

I got this one from RTD, and it was fifty bucks.
Not cheap, but Technonut recommended it very highly. I can see why. Nice to see the voltage my batteries are coming in to start the charge.
The sliders are sooth but firm. My Nitecore slides were a bit stiff, to say the least. I am pleased with it. It has a way to set the charge rate at .25, .5, or 1 amp. On smaller (18350) batteries, the slower charge is easier on them allegedly.

Sounds great, at the rate I'm going what's another 50 bucks, lmao!! Seriously, I actually have thought of having one at the office, you know a backup for my backup....you get it I know!!
I have the same charger that Edd has.
It also does more things than just charge batteries; it has an automatic ramp up so it doesn't hit a cold battery too hard, It has the capability to restore a smart battery that has discharged below its safe limit and has locked itself (regular charger can't deal with that). and the different charge rates that Edd mentioned.
$50 rupees but IMHO worth it.
