These batteries give around 3 times the capacity & hence running time, of most NiCd types, without any of the "memory effects." This means that you do not need to fully discharge the battery before recharging, so you can safely just top it up.
We also offer a custom build service, so please ask if you can't find the lead or pack you need advertised. Even if we don't have it in stock, we can usually build one for you - just contact us with your requirements & we will get back to you soon.
Remember if using a Mini-T connector on one of our packs be sure to check the polarity of the pack before use. Any damage regarding
We are happy to offer help & advice if we can - just contact us.
Important Charging guide : (Read before use)
Questions about charging are the most common things we are asked, so here are a few answers...
With NiMH batteries you DO NOT need to fully discharge them before recharging. It is perfectly OK to just top them up after slight use.
The faster a battery is charged, the more heat is produced, a battery getting warm during charging is quite normal & will not cause damage, but if the battery gets too hot, this could lead to damage.
We recommend that as a general rule of thumb the charging current should be no more than half the battery capacity i.e. for a 2600mAh battery, it should be charged at no more than 1300mA.
For larger batteries such as SubC sizes & above, the charge current can be up to the capacity, i.e. for a 3300mAh SubC cell it could be charged at up to 3300mA (But not the first 4 charges)
These are maximum ratings, it is always best to go a little lower than this - it will improve the life expectancy of the battery. A good figure to go for is a quarter of the capacity (650mA for a 2600mAh battery) The first 3 or 4 charges of any new battery pack should be carried out at a lower current, this gives the cells chance to equalise, around 10 - 20% of the pack capacity is a good figure to aim at if possible.
The use of an automatic charger is best, as this prevents any accidental overcharging, this is what can damage the battery, as once the battery has reached full charge, the energy supplied by the charger is no longer being stored in the battery, but instead is being turned into heat & it is this heating effect that will cause the damage.
