Battery Help

How much are you supposed to discharge NIMH and NICD Battery? To what V?

I just got a Hyperion EOS0606i charger. And I'm trying to tune up some of my Batteries. And I'm not shore how to go about it.

Thanks

Typically Nimh cells should never be discharged below 0.8V but can be as high as 1.1V depending on the cell. 0.9V is a good general guideline. You should consult the specs for your battery and use the manufacturers recommended values.

I have that same charger and do I love it

None of my Nimh battery's are top of the line. When I first received the charger I just just performed a discharge/charge cycle and it seemed to wake up the batteries better than my Integy Peak charger did.

I am finishing up my RC10CE driver project and realized none of my batteries fit. Anyone have a LIPO that fits this set up? I am thinking a soft case would do it but I'd rather stay hard case for Lipo if possible. Or at least a decent 6 cell NIMH,...

you can Drill, countersink, cut servo tabs and mount servo with forward mount only + servo tape - it takes 5mns, you just need a drill and a countersinking bit, it doesn't have to be super accurate, heck, even I with my 2 left hands did it properly...

Just go Lipo, you wont regret it and you wont turn back.

ditto. make the initial investment on a good lipo charger that will last you awhile and start getting lipo packs.

What would be an apprpriate vintage battery for a JRX2? Like an old reedy would be for an RC10. Not for a runner, just a shelfer.

Thanks,
Mike

Last post

Trinity Pushed cells, for a JRX2 I think only SCE's or SCR's were out then.
