I *think* they are the same, even though the colors differ.


There's a quick way to verify if you have a volt meter. Test across the sequence of "pins", and they should all be the same voltage (AND POLARITY) for both batteries.

Just make sure that each pair, battery to battery is the same.

Yes, you can do it (I have). Takes a while. Verify the Black wire is in the same place ("up" as you read the label). You donj't care about the other wires.

If you can swing it the FMA Cellpro 4s will charge those cells quickly and inexpensively. It runs about $70 + adapter for your battery (CP - GP adapter). It's a good investment for cells 2S up to 4S.
I do a 2200mAh in less than 50 minutes has a built in balancer. Shows cell voltage for each cell and mAh put back into the pack. If you buy the computer interface cable it will even graph the charge.

There are alot of chargers out there. For it's size and features the Cellpro is best in class IMHO. I have two now.

cell pro is the best
