Xtar Wp2 or NITECORE Intellicharger i2???... Help Please...

[BigCity901]

Well I decided to go with either the xtar Wp2 or NITECORE Intellicharger i2. But not sure which one to get. Just ordered the SID and this will be my first setup needing batteries. My price range is within these 2 models. And keep in mind i'm somewhat of a newb so i'm not that well educated in batteries or advanced charging. Thanks all.

There are far too many complaints on ECF about Nitecore chargers going bad and a lot of times trashing batteries when they do it. You don't see those kinds of complaints about Xtar or Pila chargers. That, and the WPII 2 is backed with a two year warranty.

I'm an Xtar user myself.
I have the Xtar P4.
I love the independent charging bays and the ability to do li-ion and ni-mh.
Not sure if the WP2v2 does li-ion and ni-mh or not..
I know the Nitecore does..

I was looking at the nitecores when i was shopping around, in the end just liked what mine had to offer..

here is a good review on the Xtar WP2v2..

and from the same place, a good review on the NiteCore i2

The Nitecore chargers are hot on the market right now. They sell a boatload of them. Nitecore sells a lot more than Xtar or Pila so that's why you see more complaints about Nitecore failures than Pila or Xtar failures. The fact is that all three brands are of good quality and all three are made in the far east with about the same QC and failure rates.

I have a Nitecore Intellicharger i-4. Seriously, consider a 4-bank charger and not a 2-bank charger for serious vaping. I bought a Nitecore i-4 for $17 on Amazon (without the useless 12V auto plug) several weeks ago. It works great.
