Default RE: Quick Charging NiCads??

The problem is everyone is right, thats the reason for so much dis imformation. Only your battery maker knows for sure, If you got good fast charge batteries can charge up to 10 C, most high discharge are 5C charge. Some standard can not go above C/5 or 100mA.Thats the problem we can argue until pigs fly...you may be right.

Always if you do not know then C/5 will never do any damage unless on >24hrs.
Also C/5 always forms the battery better, longer life, safer,just takes longer....
