Lipo Charging ICE - 1/20/2008 4:34:37 AM

Status: offline 		My ICE charger doesn't seem to want to charge my Lipo (actually Apogee Li-mn) battery pack at any higher than 1c. On my batteries sticker it says "Max Charge Rate 3 amps - 2c". My ICE will only allow for 1.5 amps - 1c. ... Anything I can do about it?

If the battery can easily handle the 3 amps than I would rather have that so that my charging would be quite a bit less..

Any info would be appreciated.

Thank you.

Status: offline 		The only thing I can think of is that you have set the charger to charge a 1500 cell therefor it will only charge at that rate max. If you wish to charge at higher rate then must set that rate as the batteries ma. in this case 3000Ma
