Thanks for the quick reply. Quick question why would you drop it down to 1.5a & 3a? Also what about a Chrg/Dischrg cycle, or just allow them to discharge naturally through use?

Hi guys, I purchased my very 1st RC truck this year....I LOVE IT!!! Charging my LiPO is not too much of a problem, then charger I have basically does it for me, and the instructions that came with the battery helped me out. I've purchased a 2nd car for my son for Christmas running on NiMH batteries, however I cannot figure out the correct settings I need and dont want to fry the battery packs before Christmas morning !! So I need some help to make sure I get this right 1st time. I have the following kit: an Overlander RS6-VSP charger 1800 NiMH 7.2Volt - Voltz pack 3300 NiMH - Overlander Tornado pack If anyone could provide "an idiots" guide on what I need to set to get this right, I'd be grateful. I'm not up with the terminology of battery charging and everything electrical ! This is something I need to learn, so if anyone can help before Thursday I'd be grateful. Cheers James
