Anyways, the 960 won't care if there's 4 cell or 8 cells. 1 amp is what I'd consider max rate for small AA radio batts.

To figure milliamp multiply amps by 1000.

Guver.. No I did not get a responce from you till now in forum..


PS ..Just woundering do you have to discharge these nicad's to zero before recharging?
My friend you should ..some thing about 1/2 charge issue.

Thanks again
