Default RE: Nicad Cycler... how much current is too much?

A good rule of thumb for fast Nicad charge is 3 times the battery rating and 2 for NiMh cells.
Your 600 Rx pack would then be charged at 1.8 amps. I hope it is a good peak sensing charger.
Some of the cheaper ones won't sense a full charge on NiMh cells.
