Just running the standard losi lipo (180 mah)I have the hyperion EOS0606i and was wondering if I could charge at .20amp rather then .15 that I have been chraging at. At this rate it is very slow, the stock cahrger can probably charge faster but I only bought the lipo since I had the lipo charger for my Larger Truck. Any pointers would be greatly appreciated.

Tough call. I don't think it could blow up the battery or anything. If you try it keep a close watch and check for high temperatures and puffing. If you see anything, even if the pack gets warm at all; I would play it safe and go back to .15a.

Yea its sooo close I thought it should be fine but I was wondering what you guys thought...thanks for your input. Its taking like over an hour at the .15 amps, a little long between charges. I either need to get more batteries or charge it faster.lol.
