So, I just got a 306b iCharger. Any tips on how to use this thing to get the most out of my battery without destroying it? Not looking to charge at 50amps or any crazy numbers guys are doing these days.
Is discharging the battery necessary? Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks all!

Set it to lipo mode, plug battery in with balance port, set your desired charging amp and let it do its thing. It's as simple as that. Typically, charging you packs at 1-2C would be plenty enough.
Discharging it isnt necessary unless you are a competitive stock class racer who discharge their packs at 40 amps and charge at 40 amps to heat up the back to lower the IR

The iCharger's are hands down the best out there. They can be a little confusing at first but once its setup its a breeze. Like others have said, you really just set battery type and amperage you want to charge at. Since you have a balance plug, the iCharger can automatically tell what size battery you have and will stop once its reached its max. SO much easier than setting multiple profiles on other chargers!
