Hi Bob
If your battery is 1500mah, thats 1.5 Amps and charging that battery at 1.5A is 1c.
If you charged it at 3A that would be 2c, 4.5A =3c etc.
2200mah would be 2.2Amps, 3000mah would be 3Amps, this is the standard charging rate, 1c.
Only batteries that say they can be recharged above 1c should be.
With my new 2200mah batteries I will charge at 1.7A for the first charge then 1.8 then 1.9,2,2.1 and then 2.2 and always a balanced charge.
Of course you don't have to do this,except 1c limit, but I'm looking for max output and max life, like those heli tear it apart nutters
When asking 100% from your battery there are huge differences between them and they need to be looked after and respected.
Hope that helps, see you at the field.
