Hi,

i Need some help from experts.

I have a LIPO 11.1V , 2200mah , 25C.

But when i charge using a esky balance charger it takes 5-6 hours. So i want to charge the battery initially from a 12V dc supply which has 1.5A capacity.

Now i know that the lipo should not be charged above 1A, so what is the best way to restrict the current going in the LIPO.

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

hi,

all experts, inputs required..............

I am confused    It should normally be safe to charge a 2200mah lipo at upto 2.2Amps (that is known as 1C charging). Monitor the voltage while charging.

You will need to use a balance charger to do the final bit of charging and balancing though. 

That said, please consider investing in a proper charger that can charge lipos at their proper ratings (it would take no more than 45 minutes to 1 hour for almost any lipo with such a charger), especially if you are in this hobby for the long haul.

Such chargers have become fairly affordable now.
