For the type of 18650 Batteries that we use, you should just be able to just Insert them and let them Charge Automatically.
About the Only thing that I can think of is if you are just charging 1 Battery, you might want to change the Current from 1.0 Amps to 0.5 Amps. But that is just a personal choice.
By Default, your i2 will charge a Single Battery at 1.0 Amp. And if 2 Batteries are inserted, then each will be charged at 0.5 Amps.
Some like to Charge at 0.5 Amps. Because it is supposed to Extend the Lifespan of the Battery. Takes Longer to Charge though.

Ok thnx btw if one battery is charged before the other can i leave it in or do i take it out
It is Always a Good Idea to take a Battery out of the Charger after it is Done Charging.
But if you are charging 2 Batteries, and one Finishes 15 or 20 minutes before the other one, it shouldn't hurt anything to leave it in the charger.

Ok thnx so much btw the charger is getting quite hot should i take the batteries out let them cool then put them back in
Hot Isn't Right. A little warm to the touch, sure. But Not Hot.
I'd Stop Charging Now.
Where did you get this Charger?
Yeah it's a little warm I may have over exaggerated
The nitecore chargers are a solid brand. From my experience the batteries get a little warm. Even my charger itself gets a little warm, but then it has vents on the bottom too. Even when I charge AA rechargeable batteries, they get a tiny bit warm. I honestly don't think you have anything to worry about.
I've charged 18650s and 20700s in this exact charger, never had any issue and i just put them in and let them charge. It does take a while, but after a year they all function like they were brand new tbh.
Good question.

re: New users - Put your location in your Profile...
I bought this exact charger last week along with some 18650 batteries as I have a Drag 2 arriving on Tuesday and all my other mods are internal batteries.
This is my first charger and was a little nervous when 1st using it - however as others have said it gets a little warm but as long as you can't fry an egg on it, it's fine.
Also if you are charging 2 batteries at once, you will find that 1 will finish charging before the other. But that's totally normal from all the reading / worrying I did!!
