Thx TJ
No, you'll see no performance gain from charging your batts at a higher amperage. Just faster charge time is all. Some guys don't like to charge at more than a 1c rate (even if they have batts capable of 5c), claiming it's bad for the batteries. I don't know, I just charge at a 2c rate and my batts have been pretty solid.
