Safe charging rate of a 4s 4800mah pack 25c
 

Right now I am charging the batts. at 4 amps. Could I go as high as 5?

you shouldn't have a problem... why not just charge @ 4.8 Amperes instead?

I just want to be sure and not ruin a 130- battery. The batt. did not come w/safe charge rates on it so I have been charging it at 4 amps. I need to charge it today so i will up the amps.......thanks..:yes:

charge at 1c for all lipos except for high performance ones that specifically state you can charge at 2c. So your batt can charge at 4.8a max.

you can charge a Flightpower pack at 2.5c if you wanted to but it shortens the pack life and it doesnt speed up the process that much

Thanks for all your input guys! I will charge them @ 4.8 max.

anyone know what the max rate on zippy-r? they look to me like polyquest failures (didnt meet the 5000mah or voltage requirement) so techincally could probably do 2c? not about to try but just another usual hijack :lol:

I would only charge those at 1c unless they say you can, I wouldnt try unless you would like to be the guinea pig

^^^ also make sure you record it in case we get some fireworks.
