Charging LiPo methods
If you have a charger/balancer can you hookup batteries in series or parallel to charge 2 batteries at once as long as the charger can handle the load?

RE: Charging LiPo methods
As Snipin Willy said, you can but it's unwise. There are chargers out there like the Hyperion 0615i that have 2 dedicated rails for 2 batteries, which is fine. Charging 2 batteries in series or parallel (especially lipos) just increases the chance that you'll run into problems like false peaking, over charge/discharge, and unbalance cells.
