Can I solder lipos in p and charge as 1? - 03.15.2008, 04:24 PM

I have 2 300mah mini packs for my tek18 and I want to know if I have to charge them seperately and use a y connector or if I can solder them together in parallel and charge them as one.

Thanks.

Are you asking whether you should use an external Y cable or re-wire them? Either way works, but the external wire makes it so you don't need to mess with re-wiring, but re-wiring is cleaner overall since there are fewer external connections. No matter which method you use, the connections are the same electrically-speaking...

Yes you can!

Just make sure the packs are in balance, not one half charged, and one full or whatever
