Thanks for the heads up though, some times rules can be missed when you see something new and exciting.

We have used one of these chargers for the past two years. At the San Jose regional last year, the X5 kept up with the charging needs of our entire three team alliance through the last match of the finals. If FIRST were to decrease the per-battery current limit for 2007, an unlikely event, we would just hack the current sense circuit in the charger to reduce the maximum current. The X5 is a great charger with useful charge state indicators. Remember to put a set of Anderson connectors on it. You don't want to be dealing with all those exposed alligator clips if they go after each other.
