Re: Be aware of battery and charger inconsistencies!

The maximum charging current for FRC batteries is 5.4A per the spec sheet.
Charging batteries at a current lower than the maximum (i.e. 2A) will improve battery life. Charging at a higher current will speed up the time it takes to fully charge a battery.
