size=2>I recently got one of those Schulze ISL 6-330D discharger/charger units
and found out I had some batteries that needed to be 'reformed'. Perhaps a
better word would be 'equalized'. </FONT></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=949561922-12062003><FONT face="Comic Sans MS" color=#0000ff
size=2>One or more cells in a pack will discharge a long time before the other
cells. This unit fixes that. You can really tell how good your batteries are
with this thing.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=949561922-12062003><FONT face="Comic Sans MS" color=#0000ff
size=2>It works on all types of cells including gel cell and lead acid for your
flight box....starter pack etc. the whole enchilada. Fully automated...put it on
and walk away. Goes to 'trickle' when done.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

Charger<BR><BR></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>What rate are you charing at and what mil pack
are you trying to charge? They will get warm but should not get
any warmer then you can handle in your hands. If it is a new pack it
should be charged at C/10 before using your Alpha. For some reason if
they are not formed properly chargers like the Alpha,SuperNova will not peak
detect properly. I seen this happen in a pack that I didnt form
properly. It wouldnt cycle at all. It would trip out(peak) way before the
battery was fully charged.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I have charged NiMh at up to 1C with no ill
effects. But C/10 is always the safest and easiest on your
packs.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT size=4>What chargers work well with Nimh batteries? I've tried
various settings on my Alpha 4 but end up unplugging the batteries before it
goes to trickle because they start heating up. I'm looking for something
that can be left unattended without worry.</FONT></DIV>
