Default Another lipo question

Hi.......Just another question anout my brand new Thunderpower 4350 mah Pro Lite 11.1 lipo. Should I charge it at 1C or maybe drop back to 1/2 C if I have the extra time?

I charge at 1C & the other packs that I have stay cool until charging stops. I am using the Bantam B6DX charger.

IS SLOWER BETTER FOR LIPOS?

Thanks in advance.....

1C is completely safe.
there are more important parameters for longer life than charge current:
1-depth of discharge.(<80%)
2-temp. of the lipo (<60C)
3-balancing.
4-rate of discharge.
5-storage.(3.8v/cell & <30C temp.)
