Might as well post pics of my charging setup

Power supply is TDK Lambda 23-28V, 70A, 1500W Industrial Power Supply... 130 bucks off eBay although I did have to pay 40 bucks shipping from Texas. This PSU is probably comparable to the Meanwell 1500W that sells more than twice as much. The Meanwell is hobby grade though and not Industrial grade.

The TDK Lambda has a low voltage switch connector which can be used to toggle power on or off:

24 volt exhaust fan on the other side directly powered by the PSU. I got this fan (and the fan guards) from Sayal Electronics (http://www.sayal.com/zinc/index.asp). They have a couple of stores in the GTA. Great place to buy soldering lead, wires, heat shrink, etc.:

Case is a wide Stanley FatMax I got at Home Depot. I covered the wooden deck with ProgressiveRC's Lipo Guard:

Nice job cyclo!

Thanks craneman32! Now if only this Polar Vortex goes away so I can start seeing what this charger setup can do

In the meantime I am building a lipo "discharger" made up of wire wound resistors. This is to put less stress on my chargers just in case I need to discharge lipos. I will post the pics here when I am done.
