It has no issues doing that with any brand nimh battery. The nonsense that one brand being special is completely nonsense. Nothing supports such wives tales anywhere on the internet. Eneloop charges exactly the same as any other nimh brand, it's all about capacity and charging at 10%. Yes you can charge at that 10% rate, as long as you never exceed 900 milliamps while charging, exceeding the capacity of the wiring inside your radio.

If you charge a lipo, or LiFe battery, you can charge over 1 amp and that would require removing the battery from the radio.

Avoid answers from non-technical individuals, it can mislead you. You can confirm a valid statement through google, any battery manufacturer, and that includes Eneloop distributors.
