Default RE: Rx battery pack questions

ORIGINAL: RockEnRoller6
Okay I just bought a new Rx pack today which is 1100mAH, I am wanting to know if it will be okay to use my towerhobbies Tx/Rx wall charger to charge the pack. The charger says it will charge 9.6V and 4.8V Rx packs, just dont want to fry the battery or charger.
I do not know about your existing charger. There's disagreement in the replies over whether you can use it with a 6 volt pack. I do not know so I'll stay out of that argument.

If you want an inexpensive wall wart charger that will charge high capacity 4.8 or 6 volt packs in less than 24 hours, you can find one at Cermark under 'General Modelers Necessities'

The CH-84 and CH-85 are the ones I'm looking at. They're 12 bucks each. For the 1100 mah packs I'd probably choose the CH-84. My packs are 1650 mah so I went with the CH-85.
