More free [and useful] information from all-battery... see link in right-hand margin... is yours for the asking with their weekly emails.
Check out some more of the information sent in this weeks offering [in quotes]...
How fast can I charge a Li-Polymer pack?
Each Lithium Polymer battery pack has a different maximum charge rate. It is very important to never ever charge at a rating above the specified rate! Most batteries have a label that specifies this vital information. However, if the maximum charge rate is not specified, keep in mind that most Lipos are made to be charged at a rate of 1C. Which means a 1000 mAh pack can be charged at 1A and a 500mAh pack can be charged at 0.5A. Once again, never ever exceed the maximum charge rate lest the battery explodes!
If you need to, or want to, know --- now you have the answer!
