1. The Triton can charge Lipo at up to 2.5amps. So, a 2500mah Lipo will take 1 hour to charge to 90%. A 5000mah battery will take 2 hours to get to 90%.
2. If you want close to 19.2v, that would be about 5s Lipo. You could get 2 packs, a 2s and a 3s. You would have to charge them separately with your Triton. You would only parallel packs to get a higher capacity/discharge rate.
3. Capacity is completely up to you. Choose something that will give you the runtime or discharge rate that you want.
4. There are so many possibilities, it's your choice. What's your budget?

Also, check out the many numerous Lipo threads here:
