Ok, so when im really in a hurry.... i do this...



beats the hell of waiting... just make sure you connect your wires correctly, that is in parallel. A good reading in Google might be needed.

Charges my 5 Packs in 70 mins or less, then will do a balance then peak charge. saves time and no harm to my Lipos....

I am in the process of picking up an old ammo box. I have heard of a few guys using them to store lipo's in.

I will tuck them into two lipo charge bags I have, and then store them in the metal ammo case.

yeah, in the charge bag, in the ammo case is a good idea. remember that the ammo case is metal so if your battery leads are questionable, please be careful!

Good thought, we should all keep that in mind. I did not think of that. Reason being is that all of my lipo's are very new and I try to treat them well when I use them.

It is only a matter of time until they get used and abused. But either way, good point on the leads.
