Bad idea. That would literally be playing with fire. Just pony up $55 and get this: http://www.hobbypartz.com/thac6smbachw.html |

DO NOT charge a LIPO to capacity on a NIMH charger, definitely playing with fire as stated above. Order the charger you want and wait for it AND talk to some of the guys you crawl with and let them know you're without a charger. I'll bet you get more than one offer to charge them for you. I know I'd do it for the guys I crawl with. |
