RE: How long should it take to charge battery?

Funflier, you are correct on the warnings that come with their own batts. Its kinda funny that they sell the 3c aspect then warn against it. Mind you this is on their cheaper batts, I have not...

I dont think the average large Canadian retailers will change until they see a lot of business shifting to the US. Look how long it took for the Canadian automotive sales side to bring the prices...
