One thing I forgot to say is to fine tune your power supply between 12.6 to 12.8 volts you can leave it maxed out, it just won't have the slow charge towards the end of the cycle

So escribe says my battery is 23.43 Wh's the pictures are taken 10 minutes apart from start to what I think is finished I did have some charging spikes when I first started charging but I think the charging board was testing the volts. Escribe was charging it to so I think that's why I was getting the 11 amps. It looks like the charging board will take what you'll give it so there goes the ideal of charging it from the cars power source. So I think having a 5A power source for this 2.2A battery will be safe, but I'm only going to use the fast charge option for when I forget of when I want to top it off before heading out.

thanks man :-) I do have some 5mm barrel connections on order for other projects I could try them, there rated for 3A though. I'm running battery anlyzer so ill have the results soon after I charge it back up

So I got my 2.2 amp pack today and this is how I wired it. The following pics are the when there was no power to powering the batteries. The batteries where almost fully charged so I'll have to test It more. The amp meter's desimule point is in the wrong place it so post to be 3.93 amps and .37 amps, (cheap China stuff) the plug for the high amp charger board I haven't decided on what to use yet. I'll post more info when the battery is dead (around Sunday evening)

My lipo pack will be here Friday evening but I thought I would try it on some vtc4's at 3 amps. First pic is when there dead Second and third pic you see the voltage is getting close to 4.2V and the amps going down Forth pic is when it's done charging Please note that the 13.3v is from the power supply and not the batteries I disconnected the power supply and it read the normal 12.6v. The vtc4 batteries where warn like normal charging warm and only took 30 mins. I can't wait to see what my 2.2 amp lipo pack charge time will be at 6 amps, 15mins.....maybe?

yeah the boards do get hot but I haven't had any burn up yet. There great little boards I have about 20 if them laying about. I might have try on what you did I have a 6amp battery backup pack that takes forever to charge

Here's one for the 25,40 and the 75 board. It uses quad tp4056 chips. But you need a 3A plus USB power supply it get the full power from it. http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item.view&alt=web&id=351668266308

I'm leaving my settings as if I never had this board in. And yes it's a balancing board. Here's the eBay page. http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item.view&alt=web&id=291645263038

There are times I forget to charge my mods at night so I end up tethered to a backup battery for about a 1/4 of the day. So I'm building a fast charge mod. Right now I'm waiting on my 2.2Ah battery, the specifications of the battery for charging is 2.2amp, max is 11amps. It's a venom 15c (33A) drain. I'm hoping to have the battery this week and should have more information and pics by the end of this weekend. The 3s board has charge and discharge protection. I'm going to try a 12V 10A power supply and see if it trips the board on changing it. 7A is what trips the board on discharge but now sure on charging it though.
