200 charger is great for a wide variety
of applications! Charge current options of 1.5A, 3A, and
5 amps plus 4 to 7 cell NiCd or NiMH compatibility makes
it great for batteries for 1/18th to 1/8th scale electrics, even
nitro receiver packs. A tiny built-in AC power supply plus
DC input capability is perfect for use at home or at the
track. A unique jack is built-in which is handy for charging
4 to 5 cell nitro Rx batteries.
