Yes you would Joe...I would really like to be able to use the charger I have. its a tenergy 1-4 cells Li-Po/LiFe, goes from 5 prong to 2 prong JST-PH connectors.
would I be able to use the pig tails Ken posted with this set up? (safely)
I had read on an RC forum that if you plan to store a LiPo longer than a couple days, you should set it to a storage charge. I also read that keeping them at really low charge for a couple months will damage them. I wonder if that's what happened to one of mine. It won't charge any more. I get a low V warning. Those things sure seem finicky.Remember, when storing Lipo's for the winter one should stick them on the charger (I have a B6) and use the storage setting. The batteries "keep" longer it's been said. They're kinda weird as opposed to Nimh and Nicads in that respect.

The battery in the picture is a 1s and all the chargers on that page are for 1s. The new battery you bought is a 2s.I don't know, I haven't flown much this year and the ones I have (not the ones this post is about) seem to be fine.
Actually one I have on an SL100 hasn't flown in almost a year and it was fully charged. Even after a flight and a 2 hour hunt in the soy.
