What is "next time"? Next day, a week, 2 weeks or longer?

Leaving them fully charged is not ideal, puffing will be the result and they will be ruined. Is it that you have to wait hours for all your lipos to charge? Do you have a good charger, something that can charge your lipo's over 1C?

Like 8ight-E does, I charge mine up the night before. If in a rush, I'll do a 2 or 3C charge and in 1-2 hours, I'll have my batteries ready to go.
