NIMH Charging.. When is it to many amps?
2000 7.2v nimh battery and seeing all this info on the net
Some people say 2000 mah you can charge at 2 amps while others say only .5??? I dont want to wait here for 15 hours for the pack to charge but at the same time I dont want to screw the cells up so whats a good compromise.
Promatch racing says to charge their cells from 4-6amps so just seeing if this applies to my nimh also?

RE: NIMH Charging.. When is it to many amps?
I agree, charge it at the 1C rating (2000 mah or 2 amps). I don't know specifically what cells you have in that pack, but almost any modern Nimh battery can safely be charged at the 1C rating.
