Thanks

Sorry I've been on a family vacation the last week, so all replies have been under the radar as obviously I'm switched off from models :-)))

No problem at all. The Sensor switch will deal with any battery chemistry, the setting is purely to 'set' the warning lights and when they come on.
5cell NiMh, 2s Li-Fe, 2s Li-on or 2s Li-Po are regulated to the 5.9v and that's it. If you trust your batteries you could leave it set for Li-Po and the red lights would be on with your Li-Fe, as long as the batteries supply 5.9v + the switch will control the model just fine
