Noooooooooo..... You must use a "Lipo" capable charger. They charge differently, they sense "full" differently. If you charge with a non-lipo charger you will damage the battery and possibly start a fire and damage REAL things around you or you. |

Absolutely not. There was one company that made a nimh to lipo converter interface, but I cannot find it. About the same price as a cheap lipo charger. |
