Postby devinedeciple » Sat Jan 15, 2011 2:30 pm

think of a battery like a car

mah = fuel tank (bigger tank, carries more fuel)
8.4v/9.6v = motor (bigger motor, more output)

i would suggest a smart charger and it's plug n play. no worrying about overcharging.

People still use NiMh batteries?
There's a difference between a person who has a screwdriver and a person who knows what they are doing.

Yea! They go great with the new Vietnam M16s Tokyo Marui just came out with.

But seriously, to the OP: What Riddick said.
