for best results, charge at 1C (which is 1 1/1000th of packs capacity) which is 1.2amps for this particular pack =)

so if i charge it at 1 amps is this to low.. Will that not charge the pack all the way...

1 amp is fine. it will charge your pack fully (looks like you have a peak charger there).

as a rule, you don't wanna charge a pack at higher than 1c (can result in hi-temps and damage to your pack)

you can safely charge at a lower rate, it will work fine, just takes a lil longer to reach peak.
