Traxxas EZ Peak Live Dual, 200W Multi-Chemistry Charger with ID, Blue 2973

Great charger! Love charging two at a time as well !

This is by far the best and most expensive charger I have purchased. It is a great charger. Charges very fast. Max charge mode is cool. The app is great and you need it to charge legacy batteries. I charge my batteries in the garage and watch tv in the house and can see the status of the batteries on my phone. And my phone beeps when they are done. I’d buy it again. $150 is a bit pricey since this has been out for a couple of years. But at least it’s not $199 like when it first came out. So you decide. It also was able to charge a couple of my buddies batteries that the standard 2790 charger could not recognize. His batteries were a new and under charged and this worked great

Amazing charger! Works very well and is very simple to use. The app for this is pretty cool too! Highly recommend this charger if you have a lot of Traxxas R/C’s with different battery types and want them to charge quick and safe!(Haven’t tried a non-Traxxas battery as of yet, I hear you can as there are covers that pop off on the front for balancing port access. You will loose the detail in the app I believe but will still get the charge.)

Awesome battery charger. Love the fact you can blue tooth and see the batteries charging.

We bought this charger after getting a slash for Christmas. We then added a Slash 4x4 ultimate and finally an X Maxx. Most of the batteries we have charged have been Traxxas. Recently I charged a HRB 14.8V 6000mAh 4S 50C 100C RC Lipo Battery with this charger that I bought for our X Maxx. I had to read the manual and get the app to charge this battery but it was pretty straight forward. The battery worked great in the X Maxx and the charger has been great so far.

I have a few other non-smart LIPO chargers. They are objectively better than this one if you're willing to manage amperage and voltage. However, if you have Traxxas brand batteries, this is the way to go.Pros:-Set and forget charging. No need to set charging amperage. No need to set storage voltage or # of cells.-2x100watt charging makes charging 2x3s batteries or 2x4s batteries a breeze.-Relatively quick charging-Phone app allows you to setup charging for non-traxxas batteries with more detail than other Traxxas chargers. Not as good as a generic lipo charger for this, but it works.Cons:-It works with non-Traxxas batteries if you take the balance lead covers off, but it doesn't give you some of the stats that you'd want without using your phone.-The app works well, but it hasn't been updated for the larger/wider screens. UI can be cumbersome. It works for what it is.

The only down side is that Traxxas batteries and chargers are proprietary. They make taking care of your Traxxas lipos safe and worry free. Extreme care and diligence is necessary with anything lithium polymer to ensure you don’t burn your house or Traxxas models to the ground. Traxxas makes it easy.

I have used if for a couple of weeks and this charger is amazing.
