I just noticed on the fp website the evo-lites are approved to charge at 2C, with balancing.
I have the evo-25s, which don't mention fast charging n the website, does anyone know if the evo25 batteries can be fast charged at 2c as well.
I'm using commonsenserc and cellpro4 chargers.

Actually some FP packs are approved to 3C.
EVO 30 Premium. 700 - 4500mAh. A premium product with increased weight and cost per unit capacity for applications and pilots where only power matters. All products a whopping 30/60C. EVO 30 is designed primarily for EDF projects and .90 size 3D competition helis and F5B where flight time is less of a consideration than raw power and reliability under extreme loads counts for everything. Fast charge rates up to 3.0C approved in conjunction with balancing, the FlightPower V-Balance is ideally suited.But "approved" and "tested" does not mean "recommended". ;)
I charge at 1.5C at times but never more than that. I believe the 25's are tested up to 2.5C. If you charge at 2C (I am not suggesting you do) I would watch it like a hawk.
