Duratrax Onyx 110 charger

Duratrax introduce their new Onyx 110 AC/DC Peak Charger. It peak charges 4-8 cell NiCd or NiMH power packs, but also features a separate jack for 4-, 5- and 8-cell radio batteries. All the modeler has to do is select a charge rate and plug it in, the Onyx 110 does everything else. It starts charging when the pack is connected, switches to trickle rates once peak is reached and does both automatically, for truly “hands-off” charging convenience. And with its compact size and built-in AC power supply, modellers can use it at home or take it to the track with equal ease.
