Default A little guide please

Hey can anyone fill me in a little? I have a 6500 4S2P 14.8V Battery an the Hyperion EOS0720iNET3 DC Balance Charger an ps how long should it take to charge that battery? Because yesterday at the track it took about 80 min. I have it set to charge at 2A. When it was done charging it said it only took in 5500 mah so the battery was not completly dead.

Well with a 6500 you can charge at 6.5 amps. That's a 1C charge rate and it should take 80 to 90 minutes to balance charged a drained pack. As far as what you put back in, well you'll only put back in what you take out of the pack.

If you set the capacity to 6500 it should auto set at the correct 1C charge rate.

Default 2s 5250

Jason- I talked with Alex Tues or Wed about replacing my 2s 5250. All is good and he said to expect it this week sometime. How is it doing and is it on its way? Not pushing by any means...just curious.
Thanks, Eric
oops- I should have put this on the support page
