Default 8.4v 7 cell help

hi im fairly new to electric cars only started getting into them while waiting for parts for my baja and savage. Was just wondering I have a 5000mah 8.4v nimh battery for my sprint 2 flux and a imax rc A3 nimh charger which charges at 2amps, the guy at my lhs said it would take roughly 2.5hrs to charge my battery, yet when I plig it in to charge it charges for about 30mins doesnt even get hot then switches the charger off.

Am I sposed to leave it at what the charger does or for bigger batteries like mine do u have to turn charger off and repeat cycle ?

it might be false peaking. just put it back on charge again until it goes a little warm.
