Charging lipo ?

[duramax47]

Do i allways have to do a balance charge, or is their certain times it needs to be balanced, I ask because when my new batteries show up i wanna make sure I'm charging them right. And is their a cycle i have to go through befor i run them or what. I have a feeling it was my fault that the lipo went bad and want to make sure i dont ruin any more.

I balance my packs every time I charge them.

On sat i plugged my bat in and something must have distracted me because i forgot to plug the balance connecter in and luckily i looked at it like 5mins in and saw it so i checked to volts from each cell and they were all good but it scared me, i wouldnt recomend not balancing lipos.

Yep...you might as well use what you've paid for..I mean if Ya have Lipo's obviously you have a balance charger...use it and use it regularly to get the "ultimate" life outta your batteries...

Balance charge will protect your batteries better. And remember never get your batteries overcharged or overdischarged, that will shorten their lifes greatly.
