Unfortunately the 610C or any of the other Lipo / Nicad chargers with 4
button interfaces are just a real pain to set up compared to the Alpha
4. Sure you can set all the options, but you are never sure you have all
them correct. And it's a pain to select different things on the 610 or
other similar chargers.
Also, Alpha 4 is limited to 12 cells, not 20.

However, the Alpha has amperage limitations that may make charging
simultaneously slower than other chargers that can charge one pack at
a time. The friend who replaced his Alpha got this charger - Thunder
Power TP610C - 1 to 6-Cell LiPo and A123 cells, 14 NiCd/MH cells and
6-12V Pb, it can charge, Balance, discharge and cycle batteries and
report back full data. It is capable of up to 10 amps (80 watts total)
for charging. It's a charger capable of charging anything out there
today.
