The new Traxxas EZ-Peak™ 5amp NiMH Charger delivers 25% more power and 20% faster charging than standard 40Watt chargers, resulting in less downtime and more runtime. Some chargers advertise fast, 5-amp charge rates, but are only rated for 40Watts of power. Other chargers require connection to a DC power supply or a 12V battery to deliver full charging current. The EZ-Peak 5amp (available as Part #2937X) delivers 50Watts of power from a standard AC wall outlet to charge 7-cell NiMH battery packs in record time—approximately 35 minutes! Simple push-button operation with selectable charge rates makes it easy to charge Traxxas Power Cell™ NiMH batteries, 5-cell receiver packs, and 4- to 8-cell NiCad and NiMH packs. Just plug in your battery pack, select the charge rate, and push the “Start” button to begin charging with the EZ-Peak 5amp. Advanced peak-detection circuitry makes sure the battery receives a perfect charge every time. The color-coded charge status LEDs indicate charging progress for foolproof charging, peak performance, and maximum runtime.

A convenient USB port is perfect for charging mobile electronics and is compatible with the USB-powered chargers for the DR-1 and QR-1 helicopters. The integrated receiver (RX) battery charge port allows charging of 4- or 5-cell receiver packs.

The EZ-Peak 5amp Charger is equipped with a Traxxas High-Current Connector for use with all Traxxas NiMH Power Cell packs and all NiCad and NiMH battery packs equipped with Traxxas connectors. Also, the EZ-Peak 5amp is backed by the Traxxas Lifetime Electronics Warranty for years of reliable service.
