I have 2 1500 NIMH 8 cell split packs from ckrc

http://www.ckrccrawlers.com/shop/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=94_76&products_id=691

The charger I have is a duratrax Piranha digital peak charger

http://www.duratrax.com/caraccys/dtxp4005.html

1) So setting battery type is easy : NiMH
2) Battery capacity is : 1500

3) what should I use as a charge current?
4) What peak sensitivity setting should I use (mV/C)? Should I go according to this chart?
