Well I ordered 2 lipos from Airsoft gi and I go a 7.4v its 2000 mah,I also got an 11.1v and its 1650mah they are echo1 brand lipos I believe but could anyone give me some advice? Like on how to charge them and basic tips, that would be great!

I'll tell you one thing: Do NOT overcharge them. Also, make sure you use a LiPO charger.

I got a lipo sack and a charger included with it
-
Could u post the link of the charger you have? In addition to overcharging never discharge the lipos fully either. Fully discharging can damage the cells of the lipos.

Don't buy from airsoft sites.

Buy a better charger.

My advice would have been to not buy a lipo unless you're gonna be playing a game that would last over 4 hours or if you're going to be firing over 2k shots. I've survived most field games here in AZ on a single charge of my 8.4V NiMH. I've only run out once, in Cali when I didn't charge my battery the night after I chrono'ed. It died in the last hour of a 6 hour game.
