Amp settings for charging a nimh battery.

happykal · January 22nd, 2012, 07:09

Is there some formula or rule of thumb to go by when it comes to charging your batteries? I've heard that your best bet is to take the Mah and divide it by 1000. 1600 = 1.6A. Is there any truth to this?

What would be a good amp setting for a 9.6 1600mah nunchuck nimh battery.

I'm using 0.5. in the mean time. Thanks

milli means 1000
Mah/1000= just regular amperage

And yes, you charge it at 1.6A
