Status: offline 		Hello everyone, I have a question about my LiPo battery and charger. First off I am running a 20/30c 2300mah 3 cell LiPo. I have a Hyperion EOS 5idp charger with a Equinox balancer/interface. I have charged my gell cell/NIMH with no issues at all, the charger will always "auto stop". I am hesitant to let the charger stop on it's own with the LiPo becuase the voltage inticated on the charger is 12.4 volts. The pack states that I should not exceed 4.2 per cell. I guess I am a little iffy with letting the charger stop on it's own when it gets close to the packs voltage limit. On a side note, when I charge my 5 cell 2/3 A NIMH it will charge to 7.022 volts then shutoff. Obviously the pack is designed to hold 6 volts. Thanks for the help guys and gals.

On the nimh pack , the voltage can be irrelevant and it could be anywhere between 7 and 10 volts depending upon how fast it is being charged.
