RE: question about charger?
the rate you set the amp charge at depends on the Mah rating of your battery
so if you have a 1500 Mah battery you want to charge it at 150 MAh or .15 amps, the charge is 10/C or 10% of the batteries capacity
Basically, charge it at 10% of whatever battery you have in Mah or amps depending on your charger (except lipos)

RE: question about charger?
some of the 959's will time out at 50 minutes. A 1 hr rate may be necessry, but may also get the pack too warm. Small batts a lot of times need a c/2 rate or less like posted above (c/10)
