Finally! I no longer need to beg for the use of someone else's power or if alone, fly my few packs and call it a day... I can live at field now!

You just need a tent now Clay and you can live there.... 
seems a bit extreme to me, I use my car to charge batteries up, when I was at tarifa in camper I just used a PSU for laptop and plugged that into my lipo charger...

High amp 6S charges will kill ur car battery.

true enough Clay, i used the leisure battery on the camper which has a much better charge/discharge cycle rate, also i have 2 x 150 watt solar panels on the roof of camper, these can push out up to 24Volt at 14 - 16 amps... PLUS i only have 3S lipos...

Solar.. That would be NICE! I've been parallel charging since I built my power supply from instructions & videos back on RCH... So I 2C charge unless at home prior to going to the field.. So I charge 3 5000mah packs at once via 30amps... This thing does fantastic!

That sounds awesome Clay, a leisure battery and a couple of solar panels would handle 30 amp no probs. just totally impracticable to carry those around..... Unless you have a camper...

Nice Clay.
I would like a deep cycle battery to take to my field, so I don't have to keep going back to the house every 3 flights.
