Charger question
So I just got my HiTec X2 400 multi-charger in the mail today which has a total of 800watts and can charge up to 20amps on each port, my concern is the manual says a power supply has to be minimum of 12v and 60amps but the MaxAmps power supply I ordered is 575watts/12.5v/47 continuous amps, the most amps I'll be charging my lipos at is 13.5 amps on each port which totals 27amps, will my power supply be able to do this without damaging anything even though the manual says 60amps minimum???

47A will be fine. I run mine on a 15A radioshack supply. They claim 60A if youre running the charger at full capacity such as 2, 6S packs @19.5A each.

I hit the timeout once when trying to re-balance a waaaay out of balance 3s pack. |
It may have either timed out or capped out.

Yea I over discharged it cause lipo cutoff was set wrong on my esc but everything is fine now and the charger and battery are working fine voltage is back to normal, thanks
