        Yer welcome chaps! I was well pleased when I stumbled on this parallel charge solution but just hadn't got around to posting a new thread to advertise it to everyone on this excellent forum! Hopefully this will save a lot of people a lot of time!

        Cheers,
        Matt.

          The snag is, do Eflite know that the 0.7A setting only delivers 0.48A and hence say use it?

            It is not an issue to use it. If it 1.7A output instead of the stated 0.7, then yes a problem. But if the charger is putting out less amps, then happy days, it just takes a little longer to charge your lipos, and probably better for them as well.

              But what I am thinking is, do Eflite know the output is 0.48A on a charging device that lights a led marked '0.7A'
              That does not mean, it is a device charging a cell at 0.7Amps.
              If you get my drift?

              0.7A could mean anything.

                Single cell lipo percentage measurement ?

                I've ordered a six lipo ganged charging adaptor for the MCPX from Android.com. Assuming you charge in multiples of 0.7 amps for each cell, how does one determine the percentage of each individual cell ? I tried it with my Fussion Smart Guard, but just got a weird flashing screen, accompanied with rapid clicking noises. Be obliged for any help here.
