snomchfun Posted April 15, 2008 Share Posted April 15, 2008 I just bought the energizer 2500mA car/home charger. If I buy 2700 mA batteries can i charge then in this charger? Quote Link to comment

Yes, but my understanding is thay they will only charge to the 2500 level, so it will not fully charge the battery. Quote Link to comment
+PSHAX Posted April 15, 2008 Share Posted April 15, 2008 Yes, but my understanding is thay they will only charge to the 2500 level, so it will not fully charge the battery. not strictly true... The charger (if it is designed correctly) will detect the slight voltage rise / falloff (Delta V) as the cells become fully charged, and then should go into trickle mode. It will just take a little bit longer to get a full charge. Quote Link to comment
Source_GPS Posted April 15, 2008 Share Posted April 15, 2008 (edited) I just bought the energizer 2500mA car/home charger. If I buy 2700 mA batteries can i charge then in this charger? Yes, but my understanding is thay they will only charge to the 2500 level, so it will not fully charge the battery. That is correct, depending on the charger. If it is a smart charger, it will stop charging when 2500mah is reached. The trickle charge will only maintain that level. Edited April 15, 2008 by Source_GPS Quote Link to comment

NOT the Maha MH-9000, it does the delta V thing, then two decreasing levels of trickle, can't speak to the Energizer though. Norm Edited April 16, 2008 by RRLover Quote Link to comment
+randyrucker Posted April 16, 2008 Share Posted April 16, 2008 Just a quick question. Is Delta V related to Delta Force? Quote Link to comment

So are the batteries made by Mrs. Frisby and the Rats of NIMH? -CritterKeeper I'm walking 40 miles in two days to fight breast cancer Please donate! http://tinyurl.com/3deww9/ Quote Link to comment

The thread is about NiMH batteries and marrying your cousin. Focus! Quote Link to comment
