AC/DC Peak ChargersOnyx chargers — setting a new standard! |
When it comes to chargers, everyone wants something just a little bit different. Some want only the basics. Some want all the bells & whistles. However, they all want the best bang for the buck — and that's why Onyx chargers are far and away today's best-selling line of R/C car chargers. There are nine Onyx chargers in all, ranging from single-output sport models to the Onyx 245, a dual-output model designed for top-level racing and the ultimate in charging sophistication. Each offers a unique blend of conveniences and capabilities, but all are designed to deliver both for at a very reasonable price.
All Onyx chargers feature:
- Compact, lightweight case design for take-anywhere convenience
- AC/DC versatility — for use at home or at the track
- An incredibly small, lightweight switching AC power supply
- Peak detection and auto-trickle to make sure that NiCd and NiMH packs get — and hold — a full charge*
- Wide range of charging currents — for handling a broader range of batteries, faster charging — and more time driving
- Simple, straightforward controls and menus.
- Safety timer, plus solid-state overload and reverse polarity protection
- Visible and audible alerts & warnings
- 5-year warranty protection and timely, professional service through Hobby Services in Champaign, IL.
Whether you want a charger that can handle just NiCds and NiMHs, LiPos alone or every hobby battery you own, you can find an Onyx charger with the features and value you want.
* Not available on LiPo-only Onyx 150.
