<div>Sorry, can't help on the Cellpro
charger. But I can confirm you are correct that the 4-cell (2S2P)
5,200 packs (Fromeco??) are charged using a 2S setting. I have
charged using the LiPo setting before I got a charger that did
Lion cells, not ideal from what the folks at Fromeco say, but it
can be done.<br>
<br>
A good option if you cannot sort out the cellpro is the iChargers
from Progressive. I bought the little 106b and love it. Great
little charger.<br>

I've spoken to a few people about charging Lithium Ion packs
but we did not arrive at a definitive answer. I need to
understand what the best solution (besides buying another
charger) is for my situation.</div>

<div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:comic sans ms,sans-serif;color:#0000ff"> Cellpro 10XP Multi-Chemistry
Charger. The User Manual and everything about the charger
says that it can charge the ION packs. So, I go to program a
preset for this but in the software, there is nothing that
says anything about ION packs. There is LiPo, Pb, A123,
Ni-Cd, and Nickel Metal. I have some ION 7.4V 5200mah packs
that I need to charge and a 2600mah pack for the ignition on a
42% Edge 540. The packs are made of 4 cells but are wired so
that they are only 2 (2 in series, 2 in parallel) cells. As
close as I can tell, I should select the LiPo 2sU (2 cell
unbalanced) but I don't want to make a mistake. Someone told
me that would be OK and another said that if you program the
charger by the charger instead of the software, there is an
ION setting but I haven't confirmed that yet as it was late
last night when I was checking.</div>
