What is the charger telling me?
I need some help understanding what my charger is telling me. I just got the Venom Pro Charger and I am charging a LiPo 6000mAh 2S.
The charger display has four pieces of information when charging starts (see pic). Please let me know if I understand what they mean. See the attached image.
1) Amp - the current charge rate
2) Volts - Is this the current voltage of the battery? The reading is higher than the 7.2 the battery is rated at...this does not seem right?
3) Charge time - given.
4) mHa... this the mHa that has been put into the battery during the current charge correct?
Also, when you scroll through the other data available, such as the balance of the individual cells, it show the current voltage of each cell... as it charges they become higher that the 3.6V the cells are rated...are my batteries being over charged?
Lastly (see pic) it shows the end voltage will be 8.4V on a 7.2V battery? Again...is it being overcharged?
Thanks!
