Rookie Mistakes

What I use is another standard item. One of the many, old, ATX computer power supplies I got laying around.

Router adapter aswell but the PC ones tend to have a higher amp rating.
Which is better to charge multiple Lipo's on a balance plate. 3amp or 3.5 isn't much over 6 batteries. If I'm in a hurry I'll push 1.2-1.5amps & do a 4S 1300mah in about half hour 40min or 6 of them on a plate on 3.5a I'm an hour 40 min. From what I gather 3.5a into one lipo is not safe.
I did read up on C rate & charging but it just whistled straight through.
Must have been late one night.

That was one of the first areas of confusion I faced with the "mentor" was his attempt to detail how he charged multiple batteries. Was mostly greek to me at the time, a bit less greek now.

I'm hoping to come across another pc one in the future.
