I am looking for a good battery charger that will charge my ship batteries (6v 8.2amp) and my transmitter batteries (Turnigy AA LSD 2200mah)  at the same time. I have two ship batteries and 8 radio batteries. They all don't have to be charges at the same time. Maybe one ship battery and 2 radio batteries at the same time. Some sort of combination like that.

Strike Models has a very nice battery charger. It needs a 12v power supply, but those can be found cheap at your local electronic surplus store. This battery charger will handle any battery you've got.

there are exactly zero quality chargers that take cell batteries. if you need to charge loose cells, you will have to find a battery holder to put them in and then connect that to the charger.

The one from Strike looks to be a really good one, and is similar to one that I have.

Another one that bears a look is the Triton series.

However, my current fave iw my Hyperion 6061 - it runs on either AC or 12vDC and is pretty darned smart.  Handles LiPo and LiFePO4 as well as NiCd, MiMH, SLA, and others.

Am I reading the description right?  This charger has no power source?  Not even a plug for an AC outlet?

Like the Triton and many other field chargers, the one from Strike Models is designed to clip onto a car battery. You can buy power supplies that convert from wall power to 12vDC, or spoof a computer power supply into doing the same thing.
