			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Just because a charger is small and affordable doesn&#8217;t mean it can&#8217;t handle  many charging needs and the ElectriFly Triton EQ is proof! Based on the Triton  Jr., Triton EQ offers the capability to handle the latest battery technologies  including LiPo, Li-Ion and even LiFe (A123) cells and there&#8217;s no need for an  external LiPo balancer - it&#8217;s built in. The Triton EQ can also charge 1-14 NiCd  and NiMH cells - great for radio batteries - with charge currents up to 5 amps  to handle large power packs. And that&#8217;s in addition to the convenience of a  built-in AC power supply and a new reversed LCD with backlight and adjustable  view angle!<span id="more-257"></span></p>
<ul>
<li>DC input makes the Triton EQ portable; a small, very lightweight, built-in  switching AC power supply makes it handy for indoor charging as well.</li>
<li>Balancing capability for up to 6S lithium packs is built in, so it&#8217;s equally  useful for the smallest indoor fliers as well as big outdoor aircraft.</li>
<li>Not only is the LCD reversed with a backlight, it also features a 0-45°  adjustable view angle for easy reading.</li>
</ul>
