loftuz Posted May 1, 2014 Share Posted May 1, 2014 Hi peeps.just quick question regarding charging rates. What is the maximum safe charging rate I can use in these little 1cell lipo's for my rc helli? I've been doing them at 0.3 amp Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nitroholic Posted May 1, 2014 Share Posted May 1, 2014 Technically....you want to charge them at 1C .... which in this case would be 0.15A I charge my little heli batteries on my IMax B6, and I use about the same. Just keep a close eye on the pack for any signs of stress, getting hot, or puffing etc. I have swapped over to Turnigy Nanotechs on mine now, which are meant to be able to handle higher charge rates. My view is that the charger isn;t going to be that precise in terms of the current it's supplying, so on numbers that small, it should be close enough.
