I see this is a reasonable setup: XMOD EVO HD Lithium Polymer Pro 2S 10C Pack Lithium 7.4V, 500mAh Charger 12V 500mAh Power Adapter w JST Connector But id really like the XMOD Evo Car Lithium Ion Pro 2S Pack for Stiletto Chassis. Would that work with the charger and power adapter from the polymer setup above? I noticed the ion batteries have 750 mah, but the charger says 500 mah. If it wont work, what charger setup would I need? I really like the look of the stiletto chassis

It's 500 mA, not 500 mAh. mAh is a rating for batteries, stating that they can deliver 750mA for one hour on a charge (while they're in top condition, anyways), or 250mA for 3 hours, etc. The charger is 500mA, meaning that at any given time, it can deliver 500mA. You can charge a 750mAh battery at 500mA, it'll just take longer than if you'd charged it at 750mA. Roughly time-and-a-half longer, in fact. It's usually better to charge batteries at a lower current anyways, as "rapid" charging or discharging can shorten the life. As for your question, like wizard said, that setup looks good.
