If anyone is intrested in selling new/used Balance charger for charging lithium polymer battery(min 3s)...pls let me know!! :)
is it possible to charge LIPo batteries without having balance LiPo chargers...i mean with d normal DC charger we use for charging rechargeable cells
NO, use only LiPo charger!
I'll be selling my old charger (http://www.imaxrc.com/sub.aspx?pid=780&catid=39) in a few days when my new charger arrives.
You can charge using non-balancing DC charger on a non-routine basis (that is, only as the last resort... rarely), by watching the voltage. Doing it all the time will SERIOUSLY reduce the life of the lipo.

If you like fireworks, you should definately give it a try... By the way I am talking about HUGE fireworks which may put life and property in DANGER.
Please DO NOT use normal DC chargers to charge Lipo. ONLY and ONLY chargers designed to charge Lipo should be used.

+1... I should have mentioned this.
A regular DC charger does not know about the peak voltage for a given number of cells in a lipo, so you have to do that part manually. And any carelessness here will result in fireworks !
Thank u all.. :)
