RE: Charger Question
No. You cant charge nimh/nicad in parallel like you can lipo's. If you want to charge two packs at once, you need two chargers, or a charger with dual outputs... An MRC superbrain 977 could do two 9 cell packs at once.

RE: Charger Question
You can do the 2 - 9 cell packs in series on any charger if the output voltage is ok for 18 cells.
ps the packs should "have required" the same amount of capacity.

Like I said, the MRC superbrain 977 is a great dual output charger than can do 2 nimh packs (even if they are different capacity) at once. It could even charge a nimh and a lipo at the same time if you wanter.
