Charge at 3.6 amps. Discharge it by driving it in your car/truck.
Most batteries should be charged at their 1C rating, which is just the mah rating divided by 1000.
Ex: 4500 mah divided by 1000 = 4.5, so you charge at 4.5 amps, 1900 mah would be 1.9 amps, etc.

mah is the "gas tank" of the battery world. The higher it is the longer it lasts.
Lipo is a type of battery. Lithium Polymer.
NiMH is also another type of battery cell. Nickel Metal Hydride.
