    charging 10s2p

    buying a generator, probably 2000 watts to charge my lipos. i will have 2 sets of (4) 5s 5000mah 70c revos. i have a cellpro 6. what do you recommend to charge these 4 batteries as quickly and safely as possible? i know i need a 24 volt power supply. what else do i need? thanks

    I am not familiar with the cellpro but a good power supply is Hewlett Packard. Yes computer server power supplies. I run two in series for 47amps @ 24volts. They are whisper quiet and run fore ever.

      It is NOT as simple as connecting two 12V units in series.

      You have to float the ground on one of the units first.

              Here is one lot: http://www.ebay.ca/itm/LOT-OF-3-HP-P...oAAOSw2xRYepsL

              And it is with all these: http://www.ebay.ca/sch/i.html?_odkw=...upply&_sacat=0

              Just watch shipping prices and I would match up the model numbers or get two new ones. If you can wait till tomorrow evening I'll get you the model number off mine. Then you can wire it up just the same.
              All you would need is a solder iron.

              Actually I see somebody is willing to help in the other thread as well.
