I ask you all, when u charge your 7.2V sticks with those chargers that handle many different types of batts, does your batt become very hot? I don't mean warm. HOT. Can pick up but feels like a glass cup of hot water left to cool for a few minutes.
My charger is a Speed EX15. I discharge the batt at 20A, then it charges at abt 3.5A. Takes something like 40 minutes to charge a 3300 batt. My 1500 batt is not so hot, just warm.
The charger has readouts for Voltage, Capacity and ....er...is it Ampere? The Capacity reading for a charged 3300 batt is 338x for one and 35xx for another. Both of them have Voltage readings of 8.xx after charging. I don't know if these means anything....
Tried charging a 12V batt, but donno whether it worked. Haven't set up my starter box to try yet.
Also, when I connect the 7.2V batt to the croc clips, should I connect them 1st BEFORE turning on power or After? I tried connecting after...got sparks. I hate the fact that the leads are exposed like that. My daughter likes to touch my RC stuff.....
Thank you for reading!
