Can the Zino lipo be fast-charged by my nice, multi-battery lipo charger?
I'm not much for waiting 3 hours in between charges.

I would imagine it can, but that might affect the life of the battery. But at $33 each, it's almost worth trying.
I imagine a HUBSAN fast charger will be available soon, it that's a practical option.

Unfortunately, since the battery is proprietary I don't think so. You would need to make an adapter from the supplied cable. And not knowing what the C rating of the battery is for charging I would rather just buy another battery (they are thankfully only $30) and charge them up before you go fly.
It could be done, but seeing what batteries can do when improperly charged, I would just accept it.
Who knows, maybe they will bring out a fast charger later on (hint, hint Hubsan if you are lurking).
