Default Looking to get into lipo again

i used to use lipo in small rc like xmods. i have a lipo balance charger from a heli i used to have its an e-flight 2-3 cell EFLC3110 and its output is .65A. i was wondering if it would work on a 7.4v 2800mah mystery pack from ebay. http://cgi.ebay.com/2x-30c-7-4v-2800...3A1%7C294%3A50

Are you using the lipos in your crawler? If so, i just bought (2) 3s 20c 1500mah lipos for $22 from www.ecpower.com.hk, i also bought a iMAX B6 charger from there, the total was like $61 shipped. Took 6 days to get here (not counting sunday) and the charger and batteries are working awsome!

EDIT: Forgot to add, they are also quite small batteries, thats why i asked if you re using them in your crawler.

I have another charger like the eflight you have; if you want it send me a PM and you can have it for the price of shipping. At least you can charge both batteries at once then.
