    New to battery rc stuff and cant gind a solid answer. I have a few lipo 2s batteries, varying from 3-5000mah. I purchased a Venom dual charger. Generally the night before I'll charge up the batteries. I noticed that the 3k battery shows a charge at full of around +-3k mah. But the 4k and 5k batteries only charge to about 3k mah as well. So is the charger not capable of charging 2s batteries past 3kmah?

    Here is the charger

    Mah is the amount of time/charge you put into a battery (or pull out)

    This charger will work, just at a 3 amp max which means it will have to run longer to achieve a 5000mah capacity.

    If you have both a 3K and a 5K mah pack on the charger at the same time, it's charging to the lower value. Try charging the 5K by itself. If you run 2 batteries at the same time, they must be of the same capacity.
