charge at 1.6 amps. trickle is usually .01

basic forumula is, to take the mah and move the decimal point 3 places to the left. and that will be your optimal charge rate

ex. 5000mah charge at 5.0 amps
1350mah charge at 1.35 amps

5mv per cell is common for just about any NiMH pack so you're all good there.

so 5mv/c-30mv/p will be a good setting
