<=remember this guy?

decided not to get a rc car battery charger for me.

i counted and there is still waay too many healthy NiCd packs i assembled from 15yrs ago that work perfectly. lol will need to kill at least half of them before i consider LiPo and new chargers.

problem is, i know how to revive 'dead' crystalized nicd... i maybe in it for a very long ride...

nicd + kenchan is safer for environment than new batteries + regular rc'er.

i can charge a nicd 3x the amp hrs safely where as nimh is about 1c, maybe a tad more.

nimh =

to charge, slow to discharge with weaker peak power.
