If you don't understand the specs, don't get it.

If you go to Duratrax website, you can see all their Intellipeak series charger...

look at the digital pulse...

remind you anything?

The ICE is way better, but again if you don't understand the specs given, you are not ready for a charger like that.
You better get the Piranha Digital...
Only reason I changed is that my new racing packs needed to be charged at least 6A.... the piranha only does up tp 5A

As for the TLP-15 (same exact thing as the Intellipeak Digital pulse) I found that it tend not to stop charging the batteries (got 2 battery explode on me, and they where not old at all)

If you want you can also check for CheckPoint brand chargers. They are apparently a division of Duratrax and do the ICE, but with some revisions. (Backlit LCD, better software, can discharge at 30A)

*edit*
All chargers come with large Tamiya style plug
The ICE also comes with alligator clips and have banana plugs on the other end so you can change the leads without having to cut wires.
So do the Team CheckPoint one.
The Piranha one had some quick attach inputs so you can also change the leads, but the lead wires tend to break after a few months, then you just have to cut, skin and twist the conductor for a few other months.

*edit2*
For the mini style plugs, you have 2 choices
1- order some extra plugs online
2- change all your plugs to Dean's Ultra and take the one inside your gun to make an adapter in case you need to borrow a pack
