Lipo charging question

[frdvschvy]

New to lipos and have a question. My chargers instructions are not very detailed and I want to make sure I do not fry my new batteries.

My charger is capable of charging two 2s packs at the same time and has four different current settings (0.5a, 1.0A, 1.5A, 2.0A). The batteries are Elite 2S 4800mah packs. What current setting should I use to charge these batteries?

Thanks for your help!

You could charge those packs at 4.8 amps (1C) so you could use your chargers full 2 amp charge rate and be well within limits.It will take quite a while though depending on how depleted the pack is before starting charging.

Good Luck
