Hello Richard, I followed Forum advice and went for the Accumate Pro....expensive....yes.
Easy to use and you can leave it on charge.
However, the Tamiya type connector is fitted opposite, to normal Tamiya type fittings. Square negative, half round positive, this is how they leave the factory.
So, if you go for Accumate, check the positive side. The guy at Accumate said the lead wire with the 'ribbing' is always positive on their chargers.
The all weather flying lead is clearly marked red/black...positive/negative so no problem there...mick
