Ta again Chaps, Oh well more money, I shall look into these batterys, I notice my new SWALLOW charger will charge LiFe, what does LiFe stand for?????
Thanks again
Lee.
Ps last thing I would like to do is crash this plane, its a beauty Tom.
LiFe is the generic term for A123 batteries. I think the difference between the LiPo/LiIon charging and A123 charging is the cut-off voltage for the charger.

Can you take a photo of and post a picture of your Swallow charger? I have the older V2 version of the charger and I would like to keep an eye out for the new version, this has been one of the major stumbling blocks that has prevented me from buying A123 batteries.

Cheers
