Default RE: Parallel chargeing

ORIGINAL: bobbdd

I have two 250 Mah Li-Po in parallel. Do I charge them at on the one cell setting, for the 4 v limit and 500 Mil for the curent ?

I have wondered about this myself, as some of the commercially available Lithium Poly packs appear to have paralleled cells internal to the pack for higher capacities. We have always been told that charging NiCD and NiMH in parallel was a NO-NO. I suppose that the Lithium cells are more like a lead acid battery in this matter and charging them in parallel is OK. But I would sure like some assurance about this........... RJ
