Thanks for the replies everyone. Useful information here.

Elsewhere I have heard of people putting a beefy resistor (heatsink, maybe fan) in series with their lipo when storage charging and getting a good result. Resistors are very cheap. Has anyone tried this and got first hand feedback or recommendations for me? It seems to me that the charger would continue to set the amps discharge, it would just do it much quicker. Might be ideal for me.

Again, thoughts and creative solutions welcome. I ran 6 packs today and we ran them good, still took 70 mins to storage charge them all - not ideal

Also, is it ok to leave a lipo 2s at 7.4-7.8v (within 0.2v of storage charge) or do they *have* to be exactly 3.6v per cell? One of my newer chargers does a range, something like 3.6-3.8 per cell....

thanks
Zoea
