I just want to get this write so it stands more of a chance of being voted on
Well, I guess BRCA will just follow the EFRA rules. And hence it will be an EFRA approval. Just point to the paragraphs in the ROAR rule or copy+paste all of into the proposal.

You must either make a new rule or point to an existing rule in the EFRA handbook (do you have it?)

We'll play it safe and stick to 1C for now. LiPos have no memory effect, so you just re-charge it without emtying it first. So you don't need much time. Morover I think we will see a 1C charge limit for ALL types of batteries.
