also the venom 3000 doesnt have any memory so it wont hurt it if i only charge it like half way, use it, mabey charge it closer to full the next time, use it, hardly charge it, use it......you get the idea. it wont hurt correct? im just making sure thats all before i waste money.

ive had a radio shack charger for a crappy truck but if you want a decient starting charger get a dynamite there only 30.00 bucks and they have different amp settings it works good for my pro-pulse because the one it came with took 10 hours the dynamite also only takes like an hour to charge a 1200 mah battery so a 3000 mah would probably take 2 hours or maybe a little bit more

What is the charge rate on the RS charger and does it have peak detection?

All I can see in the picture is NiCd, which I would not use for a Nimh battery like the Venom 3000mah pack. If it says NiMH/NiCd, then it should work fine. It is too fuzzy to tell though.

Ah, ok. I see it now, I thought that was an LED lit up. I probably need to get my eyes checked. | |
