You can charge a Lithium Polymer battery exactly like a Lithium Ion battery providing the charging rates described below are used. Please refer to our Safety Precautions Guide for detailed information on charging.

The maximum charging current for both lithium polymer and lithium ion batteries is the C Rate (Rated Capacity in mAh) of the individual cell. However, the recommended charging current is the C/2 rate (0.5C). For example, the C Rate of a cell with a capacity of 600 mAh is 600 mA. The C/2 Rate is 300 mA.
