umm you cant charge two batteries with two batteries. try adding one or two more batteries to the controller or build a stand alone charger. search the forum and you will find tutorials for them.

Around 10 or 12 bucks.. You can get the "Motor Works" boat truck combo for $19.99, and it comes with a badd ass charger...

The MotorWorks charger is the basis, and this will work with single and dual cell cars as long as you have a multi-voltage adapter. This is really an easy project and gives you kick ass charges without blowing through betteries.
