Battery Charger Question

Post by jedi knight »

Could I use a 9.6 volt NIMH/NICD charger to charge 4 of these? Would that charger give the batteries too much than they can handle?
Meh, I don't post much.

$9 for 2 batteries?! That's a lousy price. Check Target or Wal-Mart for Duracell or Energizer rechargeable AAs. I got 8 2650mAh NiMH rechargeable Duracells for about the same proce as 4 of those 2000mAh Rat Shack cells.

Jeez Wal-Mart occasionally has 4-packs of "Digital" brand 2500mAh NiMh AAs for that price!

Don't get those RS batteries unless you like wasting money, or have no Wal-Marts or Targets nearby.

I think you might iof you hook the batteries up in series, but it's a better idea to just buy a AA recharger.

I never thought to look at Walmart. How much do AA chargers usually cost?
edit: nevermind I found a charger laying around the house :oops:
