How many amps is the charger putting out/

Here's a link http://www.powerstream.com/NiMH.htm

so i says you have to "put 150 amp hours into the battery for every 100 amp hours you get out."

so if it's 1200mah you need to put about 1800mah (1.8amps) so take the amps out of the charger and divide it by 1.8 amps. if the charger is (150ma that is = to .15a) so 1.8 / .15 = 12hours. got it...

I would think the led would go out when finished, but you never know

ya that sounds about right i think!! lol my hump pack is a 1500mah pack and it takes 16 hours to fully charge!! my charger doesnt have a light but the charger for my 7.2 volt battery does and it goes out when charged!!

Anyone have any recommendations on a good charger for Nicd/NiMH battery packs? I'm looking for one that can do the regular 7.2V packs as well as RX packs.
Thanks

I used to use the prophet plus. It never failed me and has peak detection, and automatic trickle charge. Hook it up and forget about it.http://cgi.ebay.com/Dynamite-Prophe...ryZ44028QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

I use the Hobbieco Accu-Cycle Elite charger http://www3.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin/wti0001p?&I=LXEYD4&P=ML . This is a very nice charger as it can charge 2 batterys at once. It is also capable of charging Nicd, NiMH, LiPo, Li-ion, Li-Mag, Glow starts, Prety much any battery if you can find a lead. It is very easy to use. I think I payed $118 about 8 months ago. It also has a 10 battery memory in it and will cycle to. I guess when I bought this one my thought was i'll spend the extra money now and it will last along time as more and more things are turrning into Lithium batterys. Now I am running a LiPo in my MLST.
