Default Lipo - Charging Through Balance Connector

Hello all,

my Lipo charger, can only charge through the balance connector.

The charger is this model:

I've only used this for micro packs in the past, but I am very happy with it.

However, I am now looking to buy some lipo's for my B4. I'm drawn towards the Demon range of lipo's, however, in their technical documentation for their lipo range, it mentions that the charge rate for charging through the balance plug should be limited to 1A max.

Point 8. here:

Obviously, I am reluctant to charge at 1A. Is this limitation common for balance plug charging?

Does anyone else use this method of charging? are there any issues with this?

Thanks,

Chris.
