Charge Rates? - 12.12.2006, 02:41 AM

Well, I upgraded to a ICE charger, so now I am in need of some suggestions.

My current charger was only capable of 5 amps, so I just charged my GP3700's at 5 amps...

However, the ICE is capable of 8 amps. I know I shouldn't charge at a full 8 amps, or even 7. I was thinking more around 6 amps, or maybe 5.5.

Will going up past 5 amps have any negative effect on the cells? (by effect I mean more so than the standard more punch but less runtime and harder on the battery as goes with increasing amp rate) :eek:

I'm also going to need some recommendations with the peak settings...my old charger did all that automatically (all I did was input charge rate, cell count, and safe timer)
