You can charge it on any Nimh capable charger.... It will just take a little longer. Chancer are that cell is not high drain and not a true 10000mah cell. their 2600AA's are only testing at 2000.... Hope that helps

yeah kinda i mean i am not by far a battery man i plug and play but i was wondering if there is any one that can tell me what i would be getting into if i had a 6 or 8 cell battery pack made. and my charger says that it will charge up 5000mah batteries. or will it keep charging untill it getts to its peak. neither that or if there is a write up on how the mah and the charging and how battery mah work. any help on this would be great to me so i may understand this and also does it really matter if you run d's or c's besides weight. thank you all

Id recommend a nice hobby grade hi-drain sub-c or 4/5A.

yeah i am sure it might be to big but if it had the right drain and things then maybe i might get about 45 min out of the thing but i trust the pros and will stay with a 5000mah sub c battery. thank you for all the feedback.

Just another FYI... out of all the cells we have tested, the largest true capacity cell is the Elite4500, next is the IB4200. Dont let places like Vonom and Orion fool you into beliving there is anything else larger.

i appreciate that but i dont think that i will ever find a battery that will come close to the 12v nylint battery that you just have to plug and go i am sure one day me and my son can find a battery that will allow us to play for about a hour or two that would be killer. but thanks for that info will look into getting some of those so i can have some fun.
