Charging problem
#1
Hey Guys,
for a while now ive been running 2400 mah Nicads and i havnt had a problem charging them on my apex beta + charger. a few days ago i bought some 3000mah NiMH packs, but when i charge them they "finish" charging after about 10 minutes and they run for about 10 mins before going flat.
is it time for a new charger?
thanks,
Matt

Yeah i would get a new charger. Maybe your charger is only for nicads and can only charge up to a certain amount....
If your charger is able to manually adjust the delta peak cut off then raise the cut off to maybe 10mv or 15mv. If your 3000mah battery is a cheap one, maybe set it to 20mv..
If all else fails. Go for a nice new flash charger that has all the bells and whistles :P
