charging lipos question and more battery questions
I am looking at the accel turnigy 6s http://hobbyking.com/hobbycity/store...idProduct=7028. I think this power supply will work right? http://hobbyking.com/hobbycity/store...idProduct=6477. I want to charge two 3s 1600mah packs at once http://hobbyking.com/hobbycity/store...idProduct=6539, and also charge two 2s flightmax 2200mah packs at once http://hobbyking.com/hobbycity/store...idProduct=6540. I would like to know what is the max charging rate for these batteries is and what do i need to get to be able to charge 2 packs at one time. Thanks hope you understand what i am trying to say.

RE: charging lipos question and more battery questions
If you want to charge two batteries at once then you'll need a dual charger. Hyperion makes one, take a look at their website. I would personally not recommend charging two lipos in series.
As for max charging rate, divide the capacity by 1000. So for your 1600mah batteries you can charge at 1.6amps.
