Default Charging poly VS ion HELP

Hi
I just made a offer on a triton charger and and just found it's specs for charging rate is differnt for poly and ion where as the polys can only go to 1 amp and ions can go to 2.5 amp .. I was hoping to charge a little faster on some 1500 polys that balsa producks sells the can take up to 2 amps reduceing lifespan some ,,,, I was going to push to 1.5 Amp to get down to around 45 min charge time ..

Question is,,, The charger will charge ion at a higher rate And can that be used with polys ? If not ...WHY ? Would the temp probe
help ? I just checked the specs again at tower and found I may be misunderstanding specs ?
The rates posted as
1 amp for fast charging poly ,,,,,,,,, adjustabe rate at 2.5 amp for both !

Question is the charger capable of a fast charge at 2.5 amp for polys ?

Seems to be two differnt rates for fast charge ... and adjustable ???




Thanks Ron
