Yes it can. This charger was ahead of it's time many years ago. Everthing that has come out has been charging great with no problems. Lipo is the only down fall at this point.

I use a Turbo35BL to charge my batteries, and yes, it can charge the larger mah. Depending on the software version though, it may shut off early. When I charge my 3800's, my charger shuts off after 2400 seconds. (This is at 6 amps). It just means that I have to re-peak.

I had the some problems cycling when I had mine. I was told to use the 7cell mode, but change the cutoff back to 5.4 volts. The lockout was not long enough, and the volts were still too high to start the discharge portion. I never had any troubles with the charge part though. Good luck.

This was rectified with a CMOS(??) chip upgrade... what ever it was i called them and they sent me the new chip took me 30seconds to swap out and the thing was updated. No more need to use 7cell mode.
