NiMH battery charger with automatic “peak detection” or

Using Your Charger:
If you do not yet have a charger, a peak detecting charger will
provide the performance required and take care of your expensive
batteries.
A popular choice for a charger would be a peak detection charger
that can be plugged into a household AC wall socket. The peak
detection portion of the charger monitors the battery charging and
will automatically shut off upon full charge.
Other peak detection chargers require a 12V power source to
charge your batteries. You would need to use or purchase a
hobby grade 12V power supply before charging.
If you are going to be using a charger other than a peak detection
charger it is important to have your battery fully discharged prior
to recharging. Many of these have a timer that allows you to set
the amount of charge time. If the battery was not fully discharged
from prior use, you can potentially overcharge your battery pack.
If you are using a LiPo battery be sure to consult manufacturers
suggestions for an appropriate LiPo compatible charger.
Chargers designed for NiMH cells only should never be used to
charge your LiPo batteries and could result in serious injury.
Do not charge any battery unattended, and monitor for heat build
up. If the battery pack is more than warm to the touch immediately
discontinue charging.
Read all safety precautions supplied by the charger manufacturer,
and also any from the battery manufacturer.
