I have ordered but not received my TP 610c . Will it charge an Air Thunder 6s 5000mah through the balance adapter as Air Thunder says to only charge their batteries this way. Can it just be connected to the balancer and charge through the Deans, like you would charge off a 1010c? What is a safe rate to charge this battery? And, will the 610c charge two 3s 2200 mah lipos at the same time? Sorry, I know this is a bunch of questions but I need some clarification. I have heard people *****in' because this charger only has a max of 80 watts, why is this bad?. Thanks.:thumbup:

Air Thunder wants requires the use of a balancing charger, that does not mean charging through the balancing leads. The balance connectors can only handle about 4 Amps max.
Your lipo will charge through the Deans, just like the 1010c.
The 610 can charge 2-3s lipos at once, but it's not recommended. You will need an adapter and should call TP tech support to get instructions on how to do this. Wiring the batteries incorrectly will destroy the balancer.
The max charge current for a 6S is 4 Amps. A the Lipo nears full charge, you will see the Amps diminish to maintain 80 Watts output (80 W / 25.2 V = 3.2 Amps).
This charger is proving to be very accurate and reliable, balancing is as good as my FMA Direct Cellpro 4s.
