Default battery charging

Hey guys, does anybody have any suggestions on what setting to charge a 3S lipo? I have a Dynamite Passport charger and a Thunder Power 3S 2250mah 45C battery. Any help would be appreciated, just trying to keep from messing up the battery and charger. Thanks

Charge it at 1C. 2250mAh / 1000 = 2.2 Amps. I am not sure if that battery can be charge at a higher rate than 1C.

with that battery you ARE able to charge it at 2c. I would charge it at no more than 5 amps when i would want to quick charge, for normal charging continue to use 1c charging
