Howdy.. I just picked up an E-Power and the charger that came with the kit is quite lackluster....

It is only a single channel charger (And I have 3 batteries) and is a pain in the ..... and I don't know if I trust it too well.

Does anyone know of a place (That takes paypal, preferably) that sells a reliable dual-channel charger that will fit 14650s? Also, is it safe to leave lithium ion batteries on the charger (If they have a PCB)? I always thought this was a big no no because of overcharging but things could have changed since I was a flashlight geek.

Also, I'm not looking for one of those high-end $50 chargers. I don't mind if it is a chinese cheap one.. as long as it has been reliable for others.

I used a Trustfire TR001 for a long time which cost $9.99. Then I broke the cord so I went to my backup charger which is an AG-126, don't know what brand but cost $7.99. Both were from madvapes, both work equally well and handle everything from my 18350's, 14500's, to 18650's. Neither will overcharge, the TR001 stopped charging at 4.18v, the AG-126 stops at 4.2v.
