Hi folks,
I've been balance charging my LiPos using a BC168 balance charger. It's working well but is a bit fiddly and time consuming. I want to use the bike to commute when I'm happy with it, so a simpler charger set-up would be great.
Could I use on of these to bulk charge?

My hope is that I would simply unhook the pack and connect it up. I would then check the balance say once every 10 charges. Does this sound sensible?
One more thing. How does the charger above know how many cells you have, therefore what voltage to supply?
