quick charging question Is it bad for a NIHM battery to be charged before it is fully discharged? thanks |
I charge mine when it's not fully discharged. I leave a little life in it, no problems. JUST DON'T HOT CHARGE THEM!!!!! |
I run mine down pretty far, I do have a charger that will also discharge them so if I'm not sure of the remaining life I let it take care of that. But as Suzuki Yota said, don't charge while the battery is still hot from discharging. |
Thanks guys. My charger does not discharge. But it does have peak charge detection. I just got a new maxamps 1600 split pack last week, and don't want to wreck it. Only got three charges on it so far. Thanks again. |

What about if your pack isn't really dead, but it isn't full. say....1/4 or 1/2 dead. Can charging it damage or shorten the life of the pack? |
Whats meant by "hot charging" them? |
i beleve he means that you havent allowed them to cool and "rest" before charging them again. I made the change to Li-Po because its a lot easier to use and maintain so im allowed to drive more worry less. |
Do lipos have to cool down before you re-charge them? do you have to wait a certain period? |
