As for my stuff, I'm charging them at about 2.5C, and my three 6S2P A123 packs have the same exact performance as when brand new, three years, and about 200 flights on each of them.
I'm straying a bit off topic here, but with the A123 packs, what do you do to compensate for the difference in voltage? In other words, what A123 setup would you use to replace a 3S 1000 or 2,000mAh pack?
