[Admin Note] Added a proper topic name instead of just "batteries" and moved to the right board.

It is not clear what type of cell is the Huawei one. I haven't seen many LiPo cells that are cylindrical. The voltage being 7.4V (typical of 2 cell lipo) could be misleading.

The second one is a LiPo, so a balance charging lipo charger is the right charger.

If you have a multi-function charger, that should work for most cases, but even though you have to choose the right charging mode based on proper identification of the cell chemistry.

The main question is, what type of charger do you have, or are you planning to get one.

Get a Lithium ion charger for the 1st Battery
and a LiPo Balance Charger for the 2nd Battery

Both types of batteries are quite different from each other.

BTW, LiPo's batteries are used in Helis and not Li-Ion batteries.
In respect to their weight, Li-Ion batteries are not capable of releasing enough Power to lift a model.
