Lipo bible

[Crazy L]

Hi guys

I was considering upgrading my leccy gear as My RC2000s are 8 years old now and my chargers are to suit. I was trying to swot up on Lipo but no one post answers all my questions like: whats the config of stick/saddle packs? (2s2p) etc and what it all means. C ratings?, good chargers for little £? Basically, a kind of beginners bible for Lipo. I'm looking at 1/10th off road usage btw, in 4wd. So a little advice maybe, but please, no "I only use blah cells/charger cos they are the best" crap.

So please, if you have some time to spare, a numpties guide to Lipo would be cool as I'm a little stuck in the mid '90s at the mo.
