7A x 16.8V = 118 Watts
I'm no math wiz, and some people will use battery nominal voltage for figuring wattage.
2C charge rate for your 4S 6500mAh pack? You would need a charger with at least 218 watts.
13Amps x 16.8Volts = 218.4 Watts
Thanks for this. New to electric, been a nitro guy my whole life.
Only plan on charging at 1C for pack longevity lol.
Off to find a new charger :-(
Thanks guys!
