This is why when some one asks about different battery chargers I always tell them if you can afford to spend a little more go for the bigger charger. When I first got into lipos it was for my r/c cars a BC-6 50 watt and I only charged one pack at a time
2S1P 7.4 3800 35c no problem set charger to 5 amps and walked away 30 mins or so later all charged up but I also noticed that the amps would always drop down to 3 to 4 amps didn't bother me but when I got my boat and needed to charge 6 packs to go out to the lake that charger took over an hour to charge just two.
so i bought a new charger this time a Turnigy Accucell 8150 It's 150w when set at 5 amps it stays there and it can charge 4 packs in about the same time it takes to charge two with the BC-6 at 50w the $60 I spent on it wasn't a waste but I wish I had got the bigger one from the start
