Default Charge Cells or go PUB ??
What do you think lads. Do you stay at home and charge your cells, or do you go pub get pissed then come home in time for boxing???

Come on Ricky Hatton.

Stay at home, charge your cells then have an early night as you have a long race day tomorrow!

Why would you ever charge your cells at home?

low numbers at meetings.. not enough time to blast 4600 mah in to your cells between rounds.. especially with 4200's they take an age to charge even on 5.5/6 amp

i charge all my cells the night before just to be safe, theres no difference ive found from charging the night before and repeaking, to from .9 to a full charge at a race meeting.

Craig the red wire goes on the plus and the black wire on the minus this should sort your charging problem out. LOL :jimmeh
