Hey everyone just want to make sure i hook this up right, I do use the xt60 adapter to go from battery to charger then plug the short wire with white end into the charger. And I have set for 2.2a 11.1v 3s

Is that the correct way to hook up

[G+_Heath Reeder]

Yea i was going to hook up in garage, so it should stop when charged, if everything works right?

I charge mine in a lipo bag with the usb temp sensor (just look on amazon). The paper that came with your battery will state recommended charge rate, this will vary depending on type and make. Make sure you always plug the leads into the charger before the battery. If your battery has a balance lead, always use it. Sometimes this makes for a tight fit but you can also buy extenders on amazon. I like using them because it  makes it easier to fit the battery in the bag for charging.

Successful charge

I run the Turnigy 2200mAh 3S 25C. They have a max charge rate of 4C. Thats not the same as 4 amps. Thats 8.8 amps. You calculate C by (pack mAh x C) / 1000 = Amps. This is also how you tell if your C rating is enough for your motors. You can ALWAYS charge lower. Just never charge above the recommended spec for your battery.

I also charge mine in a lipo bag, I have 4 total bags and label them for the number cell the battery is, (2 3s and 2 4s). When I fly I take 1 bag with the extra battery in it, which allows me to store the drained battery after I used it. That way it's not sitting out in the direct sun. :)

Thats a good idea Eddie Hughes. I only have one bag so far but I do use a rubber band around each pack with the balance lead held under it for full packs. That way at a glance I can tell which is full and which is empty.
