Kyosho Route 246 C-03 LiPo/Li-ion/NiMH/NiCd DC Battery Charger (6S/5A/50W)
Mediocre quality. Not very powerful either: a 6S 5000mAh pack can be charged only at 2.2A (aprox. 0.5C) with this charger because it is capable only of 50W output power. The same charger branded under various names can be purchased for half the price from other places. -//- Crap buttons. The cooling fan was noisy and it died after one month. Don't buy this charger as it has big quality issues, not to say that Kyosho does not answer my emails about warranty service. Not the way to go, Kyosho! -//- Poor quality buttons, they have to be pressed quite hard to work. Slow charger, only 50W. The cables it came with have melted areas from poor soldering job. For a product to be sold in North America, the English used in the manual is rather poor.
It seems to be just a rebranding of a Chinese model you can find under various names, one being the Turnigy Accucel-6, and it costs double. Overall it does the job, but there is nothing special about it. I would not buy it again. -//- I bought this charger because the description said ''Kyosho Route 246 C-03 LiPo/Li-ion/NiMH/NiCd DC Battery Charger (6S/5A/111W)''. Well, after I got it I found out from the manual that the device is capable of only 50W. This is not the way to go, AMainHobbies!!!

I have only had this charger a few days now but it is a great charger as is identical in display and function while almost identical in looks to many other chargers with great reviews so I don't know why others seem to think it is so bad.
Does what I want and more.
