Default Help with peak charging

I know it's bad to fast charge a receiver battery at 5 amps, but it's the only setting that I have for fast charging on my charger. I was wondering if there was a way to "daisy chain" multiple 5 cell packs to charge at once, in an effort to distribute the load of 5 amps to a more suitable 1 amp per pack. I obviously flunked electronics 101, so please help. If it's possible, how do I do it?

This won't help you, but inversting in a professional charger was one of the best ideas I ever had. I use the SIMPROP INTELLI CONTROL V2 and it's fully programmable. V3 will also charge Lipos. The Intellis are operated at 12 volts which means you need a volatge converter (forgive my vocabulary) but at the track I can connect it to the 12V Pb battery I use for my starter box. Very comfortable.

Please don't start multiple threads all over the forums asking the same question. I believe the electric car,truck,buggy forum already answered this for you.
