Review: RC charger - Works well
Review: Must have for E-Revo! - I don’t know why Traxxas does this other than to upset their customers enough to buy more products from them… but regardless of the reason, this charger is a must have for 1/16 E-Revo owners! For some odd reason the truck comes with a cigarette-lighter style charger which means you have to charge the batteries in your full-scale vehicle ;-) or rig something to enjoy your new truck. I immediately ordered this from desertcart and have used it ever since! It plugs into the wall and charges the battery fast. Simple. It works the same as the one the truck came with: plug in the charger, wait for light, plug in battery, wait for solid green. I believe Traxxas should ship the truck with this charger and sell a cigarette-lighter style for those on the road but I guess they would sell practically none if the did.

I don’t know why Traxxas does this other than to upset their customers enough to buy more products from them… but regardless of the reason, this charger is a must have for 1/16 E-Revo owners!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works perfect for traxxas batteries
*by S***I on May 10, 2025*

Worked perfect. Plugged into the wall, then the battery and away it went. I see bad reviews and the people have some oddball battery that isn’t even a traxxas style plug Also a side note this is actually better than the other version traxxas charger thats just a square box and you need to provide a cable. The other version charger there’s a special sequence how to plug it in. Just be plugged into the wall first, then the box, then battery. It’s very anoyying because it still often glitches out throwing an error light. This is a better version that’s all in 1
