Here is the info I found on step charging ib3600's:

Intellect 3600 non matched

CTX-CHG

1/3 3100mAh > 6.5A > Flex-no

2/3 3120mAh > 0.1A > Flex-no

3/3 3900mAh > 5.2A > delta peak 12mV , temp cut 48C

Repeak x2 > delay 5:00 > Repeak capacity limit 250mAh

I havent found any negatives with step charging .
Step charging pending your setting will give you more punch and longer run times. Also added benifit while keeping your batteries cooler they live longer because they arent killed by the heat. I dont see any negatives other then I wish they were free .
