Charger

[Verne Koester]

Thanks Earl,
That's a little comforting. I don't know a lot about batteries except that up to now, I've always heard that heat and rechargeable batteries are a bad mix. I've been hearing from other guys as well that NiMH batteries heat up a bit when charging and that it's normal. However, I'd be surprised if they're supposed to get as warm as they were on my Alpha 4. Other than figuring out the best way to charge it at a reasonable price, I'm very happy with the 3000mah NiMH pack I got from Bern Furgang for my Kavan starter. I'm now contemplating a 2000 mah pack for my 9Z from Bern but I want to get the charging situation cleared up first.

  Another point concerning NiMH charge temps is that, unlike NiCad, NiMH cells exotherm from charge onset (NiCads only exo after "peak").
