    Can you measure the temperature of the batteries in a free state and later at the moment of maximum charge?

    When I was first charging them they hit 130f and I got concerned so put a fan on them.

    IMAX B6 allows you to connect a temperature sensor and turn off the charge when the programmed limit is reached.
    But you can also install a fan to blow air on the battery during the charging process.
