I told him about the Apogee and MaxAmps warning and he said he would look into that. Seems someone got their wires crossed somewhere! That and maybe the tendency for some idiot to spout some nonsense on a forum somewhere and it becomes "fact".
So, straight from the horse's mouth!

Holy crap Brian, I really appreciate all the help that you have provided! That is reassuring to hear that the CC/CV charging technology used in the 989 and is safe for Lipo charging. Just wanted to be absolutely sure before I spend the money, cause I would hate to make a bad investment (or have a lipo battery blow up on me!
Anyways, thanks again for all the help. I just finalized the sale of linc's 989 charger, and should receive it quickly!
Cheers!
