Has anybody used the digital piranah to charge the stock micro-t batt ?
Ive heard of false peaking charging at .1 amps (very low) on some chargers.
any info is appreciated !

I dont think the piranha go as low as 0.1 amps, I used to have one.

I just got a piranha, it goes to .1. Will it work though?

Racing T

if it really goes that low why shouldnt it work?

Is this the charger you guys are talking about? http://www2.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...&I=LXCLD5&P=RF
If so you can charge your batteries at one amp...

Smiff 24

Yes, thats the one.
not 1 amp but .1 amp,
( if it really goes that low why shouldnt it work? ).....Because some inexpensive chargers will false peak at that low a charge rate.
low charge rates are hard to detect. Ive heard this is a good charger but I havent heard anybody use it for a micro battery.

Mr. Mugen

You need to set the mv's to detect the peak properly. It is all in the manual.

yes it works fine, i have mine charge my micro t all the time

Mr. Mugen

what mv/p do you have yours set at?

Smiff 24

OK, glad to hear it works, gonna go get one, didnt really want to spend too much $$.
I will read up on the manual when I get it !!!
joeyblaze , did you use the connector off the stock charger or did you go to deans ?

Racing T
