What mah are the tp packs? Sorry to keep asking, but the labels have velcro over them. And I do not want to overcharge them.

I'm pretty sure they are 3800's. I got them with a heli I bought but not 100% on that.
Maybe try to peel that velcro back if you can.

Already did, the sticker goes with it. If they are anything close to that they are 3700 packs. I will try them out in the slayer, as that is setup for 5s and will not push that size pack too hard.

Sounds about right.
The Zippy's should be 4200's Maybe give them the same test. I can't remember what I pulled out of those. I think I might have to many batteries if I can't remember what's what.

I have so many lipos I cannot really remember where they all came from... So I feel your pain. I will try to get them all labeled correctly!

Always read the forums but never posted...

Anyways,

I have a 3s 4900 20C Rhino battery and when I charge it it only takes in about 1500 -1700 mah after I ran. I charged the lipo up again and ran it to about 11 volts where it started to slow down. The second time I charged it was on a hyperion that I borrowed to check the cells. It was fully balanced at the end of the charge. I ran it this time and it did the same thing. I was told to charge the individual cells and the mah added up to around 4500 but I did not run until cutoff and it only charged to around 1500-1700 mah again.

What a mouthful, but do any of you guys know what is going on?

Thanks,
Zach
