Best Sub $100 charger for Pila 150-168's?

[Hallis]

Hey guys,

I was looking around for a charger for my Pila 150's that ive got as i never got a charger and havent really used the cells yet. I want a good safe reliable charger that will fully terminate at ~4.1-4.2v and not rely on battery cell protection to terminate the charge. I heard that Pila has a recent charger that will work but are there any CPF supporting vendors that carry them? I tried looking up JSB but by old bookmark doesnt work anymore.

Thanks

I bought one few months back from bugout gear I belive it was. About 50 or 60 shipped. Great quality. Is the one made by Pila. It will charge 18650 and others. By the way 18650 batteries are awesome. I have a Lumapower that runs on one 18650 absolutery outstanding. Runtime will last about twice or more than 2x123 The battery is AW.

The Pila IBC is probably the best cradle charger for li-ion cells available without custom configuring something with a nice hobby charger and cradle.

Ok, have a direct link from a supporting vendor for that one? I want to make sure i get the correct model.

Here is a link for the Pila IBC charger. However as mdocod says, you could probably find a good hobby charger for ~$100 and change, and that would give you better control and flexibility.

Yep - The Pila charger is a very high quality charger.
