|  LiPo - Balance/charge or charge then balance?
I've done both, both seem to work, what does everyone else do? Does, one prolong life of battery over another? |

I balance while charging. I haven't seen anything against it so far. The main reason I do it this way is because I know I'll have maximum charge. Every .1 volt counts!!!

lol yeah I suppose you're right. batteries are fairly cheap. I bought 2 more today and plan on marking them and doing one, one way and the other, the other.

I prefer to balance/charge at the same time. Doing it this way, you never overcharge the battery.  |

Balance while charging that way you get a 100% full charge everytime.
