Is this charge rating correct?

Looking on here, as most of the charger for 1s batteries start at a rate of 0.3A, and it says you can charge these at 10C!! Is this because they haven't got to balance with any other cell, so for these they're saying I can charge at 1.6A

Also apart from making a 6 way adapter as some have done, is there a charger out there that makes charging these quicker and easier, as getting an mcpx before long and will have a load of 1s packs to charge :cheers2:

Read the maximum charge rate on any LiPo as meaning 'will not usually explode if charged at this rate'.

Any time you charge above 1C or at most 2C, the odds are you are shortening battery life, just because they can be charged that fast doesn't mean they should be charged that fast, unless of course you sell LiPos and you want to sell more of them sooner ... :)
