Need to know how much amperage I can pump into my 3s 2200mah batteries when charging??? Im currently charging at 1amp and it's extremely slow. Would 2-3 amps be too much?? I just ordered the cellpro 4s charger from FMA. I have not got it yet. Need suggestions thanks.

2.2A would be 1C and is normal....

I charge my batteries at the max for the 4S which is 4A (set to auto-mode). 4A is less than 2C and I have not had any issues with my batteries yet.

You are using a LIPO charger, right?

As int2str sayed, 1C or 2.2A is common but you should do it with a LIPO charger.
