Going to buy a battery charger and have seen the i4 thrown around quite often. Just wanted to double check and make sure that is a good one before I click 'checkout'. Thanks in advance!!!!

It's OK and will do the job, but it's kinda slow... 1 setting. I have the Gyrfalcon All-88 at home and the Gyrfalcon All-44 at work. I have an Xtar 2 and an Xtar 4, too. I started with the i4, though... oh, and there are the Efest chargers... their batteries aren't very good (rewraps), but their chargers are fine.

Thanks Y'all! I will sure check all those out thoroughly and make a good decision as to which on to get. :) Much Love to VU for all the useful info I get here. At the other place sometimes getting info is like pulling wisdom teeth. :inlove::inlove:

Oh and thank you Miz Whiskey for moving me to the appropriate area. :bliss:

Right now you can probably find a good deal going for the Efest LUC-4 charger. I think it's a better charger than the Nitecore as it has three charging levels/speeds.

The Nitecore line is a good budget charger but do not last very long, Efest hit the middle of the road, better than the Nitecore line with more options and durability but pricier, Xtar are the Cadillacs of vaping chargers, little more pricier, more durable and lasting, best warranty out of the three brands, but can be the priciest yet well worth the extra investment. I understand dealing with a budget but an extra $10 to $20 extra spent on a quality charger can save more in the long run so keep that in mind as well. Nothing wrong with the Nitecore line, they do their job well, only trickle charge mode, but that method is gentler on the batteries in the long run, don't be surprised when the i4 starts having slots stop working in the 12 to 24 month time frame.

Okay yeah that is definitely bad about the nitecore and 10/20 dollars more is much better for something that lasts. Thank you! I will give those a look see. :)

Don't get me wrong, I have had a D-4 Nitecore for going on two years now, and it has never missed a beat. The biggest downside is if you charge more than two cells at once the charge rate drops to 375mA, the LUC-4 can charge 4 cells at 1 amp, and two at 2 Amps if you're really in a hurry for fresh batteries.
