Confused about charge rate
O.K. I have been charging my Zippy 4s4000 packs at 2Amps. They say on them that the max charge rate is 2C. Now these are 20C packs. Dose that mean I can charge them at 2*C, or 40 AMPS?!?!? That doesn't sound right. What am I missing?

RE: Confused about charge rate
2c means 2 @ the capacity or 2 @ 4000 mah in your case so 8 amps max
