I received the Ultra Power UP100AC plus, its a really nice charger. It's compact yet powerful, with 100watts @ 10amps it's able to charge multiple batteries at once if you choose to. The charger also comes with easy to use software that just makes charging more convenient. An example of this: the UP100AC has separate menu selections for lithium batteries like LiHV, LiLo, LiFe, etc.. Other chargers actually require you to go into the charger's settings and switch to the corresponding lithium battery. This charger gives off a high quality feel to it, it's got a bit of weight, but I think this only adds to the quality. With the charger opened up, you can see that it makes good use of space, but at the same time, the internals don't feel all cluttered. The charger uses a 1.75" brushless fan to cool things down, I noticed that the fan activates when temperatures exceed 40 degrees C. I think it's a good thing that the fan is not so active, as with most of my other chargers, especially the one's with loud fans: it's always on, it's just a nuisance because I have all my chargers set up in my small bedroom, the noise level when all fans are running at the same time can get pretty high.
The UP100AC includes features to make your life easier, as stated previously, Ultra Power includes preset menu selections for all Lithium batteries, not just LiPo. In addition the charger has all connections facing the front, this makes the whole setup look cleaner, especially when everything is set up and ready to charge ....you don't have wires sticking out in every which direction, only towards the front which actually saves space.
Pros:
Powerful
Compact
Built in PSU
Quiet Fan
USB port
Battery Monitoring through computer with mini USB port
Built in voltage meter
Front facing connectors
Cons:
No XT60 adapter only comes with Tplug
I believe BG only sells the European version of this charger, so people residing in US will require an adapter.
