Default Charger advice

I'm now looking for a quad charger as my lipo stash and cars are expanding. I'm after one that will work off mains and 12v battery, and if I can get away without a psu that would be good but not a big problem if not. I've been looking and found these that seem reasonably priced

http://m.ebay.co.uk/itm/190762325931

http://m.ebay.co.uk/itm/221303723003


Dose anyone have either of these or can recommend something that's simmiler or the sort if thing I should be looking for.

Thanks justin

These are top quality and reasonable price for four chargers in one with AC/DC built in

For racing 2s but for when I'm out and about a mixture of 2,3 and 4s. I've already seen that one Shaun but I think it's a bit down on power

I have seen some of. The skyrc stuff and I think this looks like the one I'm gonna go for and get a psu. The ones with the built in psu are lower wattage and more money

Looks ok take in mind it will only charge at said rates if you supply the Voltage and Watts

says 12/18 so you need 18 volt PSU that's Max it can take
