Default New charger

Hi,
I need a new charger, and i found iCharger 308DUO and hobby king has a 600w power supply that i want to use because i dont afford a 1300w power supply.
i will use it to charge my 4000mAh 6s batteries i have 4 of them.
I wonder what charge time I will get. With my charger i have now it take 1 hour to just charge one battery.
Will this be a good buy?

Although Hobby King sells pretty good LiPo's, I have not been impressed with the consistency of quality of their electronics. Since you are charging larger 6S LiPo's, consider a charger than can handle at least 24V input

I just got a 308 duo last week. It works great for my 6cell packs.
