This parallel charging harness is perfect for charging up to 4 individual 1S batteries with the JST PH 1.25 connector. It doesn't work with JST PH 2 connectors. When parallel charging, it's best to have all battery packs at a similar voltage. Avoid having a fully discharged pack and a nearly charged one on the board at the same time. To use, plug the cable into the charger, connect 4 discharged batteries, and charge at 1S voltage and combined 1C current. For example, if you have 4 x 500mAh batteries, the combined capacity is 2000mAh, so a 1C charge rate for the combined pack is 2A.

Using this charging harness is easy. First, plug the cable into your charger. Then, connect up to 4 discharged 1S batteries with the JST PH 1.25 connector. Set your charger to charge at 1S voltage and the combined 1C current. For instance, if your batteries are 500mAh each, the total capacity is 2000mAh, so charge at 2A. Remember, make sure all the battery packs have a similar voltage. Don't put a fully discharged battery and a nearly charged one on the board at the same time. As for maintenance, keep the cable clean and dry. If you notice any damage to the cable or connector, stop using it immediately.
