Q X7 DIY battery
#1
Hi,
I made a 2 S battery pack for my Q X7 with two 18650 (Li ion) batteries and a 3D printed case, it works great. As I added a balance lead, I charge the pack with my IMAX B6. I am now familiar with Lipo charging, I usually charge my Lipos at 1C, but I am not sure if the same principle apply to li-ion batteries: could I charge them also at 1C? i.e. if the batteries are 2400 mAh, should I charge them at 2.4A? Or is it better to go for a lower C?

1C is OK but I wouldn't go any higher. Most manufacturers recommend .8C for prolonged life

Standard charge rate is 0.5C.
