hi,

does anyone has any data point on high amp charging will be better or worse for the lipo pack ?

Recently, I tested on two brand new 1S pack from Yokomo (YB-P169BE) and see no diff in performance when I charged via 10A or 20A.
The IR reading from icharger 206B seems to show the same, which is around 20mOhm I think.

I don't have experience on Yokomo cells if it is good or not. But so far, it is new and it is holding up well.

The only time that helps is charging at 20A reduce the charging time to ~30mins. This allow to run 2 packs back to back during a practice session.

I usually practice until the pack reaches the Lipo Voltage cut which I set to around 3.2V.
