question on charging my tx,rx packs
 
i was wondering how long i should charge my tx and rx packs. my reciever pack is the trinity xxxnt hump pack and the charger for it charges 6 volts at 120mA, my transmitter charger charges at 9.6 volts at 50 mA and i have the standard sanyo aa cells at 1.2 volts at 700mAh. thanks

12 to 16 hours should be good enough, your charger is actually a trickle charger meaning it will be lessly to overcharge your batteries

assumming your rx pack is 1000mAh to 1200mAh charge 10 to 12 hours on the receiver minimum

all i know is it is the trinity xxxnt hump pack i didnt know it took so long for the packs to charge i was wondering why they didnt stay charged that long. do u have any special way of discharging the packs to get the best charge possible with out buying a special discharger?

Nimh packs don't need discharging just charge them an initial of at least 12 to 16 hours then you should have power for 1 to 2 hours of playtime remember your current charger is the best way to bring your batteries to full capacity or just leave the receiver on until it discharges then charge it 12 to 16 hours
