New to these chargers, they have a option to charge at .5/1/2A. Which option should I use for 18650 3400mah batteries.
Which should I use for AA, and for 18350. Just want to make sure im not doing something unsafe.

1st, charge your 18650 batteries at .5A or 1A. I do mine at 1A.

2nd, do NOT put AA or AAA batteries in this charger. It will not work and could be dangerous.

3rd, charge your 18350 at .5A or 1A. .5A is probably better for them.


ETA: The 2A setting is for 26650 batteries and will only allow you to use 2 slots for charging.

It's just as important to check whether your batteries are ICR chemistry and/or whether they are protected or unprotected.
