Default RE: Receiver battery charging question

Chopper Mike,
I am confused, are you agreeing or disagreeing.

Your first comment apprears to disagree.

Fast charging on the way to the field everytime you fly is not a good thing.

Nope, absolutely not.

I fly with a guy who told me a friend advised him to only use a quick charger, saying overnight charging was bad for your batteries. Obviously there's a lot of misinformation about a lot of aspects of this hobby. I told him that quick charging should be kept to a minimum and the rate used should be at a minimum for the needs at the time. After all, a 3 hour charge is considered a quick charge by the battery manufacturer.

Your second comment appears to agree.

Please clarify.
Thanks,
