Default Old Charger/Need Info

Hey Guys/Gals,
I found this old charger in my attic. Do you think that it is any good? I would be using it to charge 3300mah nimh pacs, but on the charger it only has up to 1200 mahr @ 15 minutes. So would I just triple my charge time? Any help would be appriciated.

Thanks,
Chad

Yup, that charger is intended for Ni-Cd packs.

You'd run the risk of destroying your packs with that charger.

Just get a decent Ni-Mh peak detection charger...they're $40 or so.

Is there any certain charger that you would recommend?
Thanks,
