Turnigy Accucel 6 help
20 May, 2011, 08:17
Basically I have the above charger and I use it to charge lipos, Now I know it charges NIHMs. What setting would i need to put it on to charge say a 4.8v 700mah battery?
Would I set the Amps to 0.7A

Yes, or slightly lower if you can wait. That's what I do.
The voltage is set automatically.
And you are selecting NiMh for the type, right? (just making sure)

keeps the battery healthier. Fast charges are more harmful to them. Repeatedly fast charging them will cause them to lose power over time much quicker.
Basically, if youve got all the time in the world, put it on the lowest setting

Re: Turnigy Accucel 6 help
I've always been of the opinion of the posts above...
But through the words of a tech, apparently you want to charge at the same mAh as the capacity of the battery, so that the battery is accustomed to this charge, therefore giving you maximum discharge potential, otherwise your battery may become accustomed to discharging at a lower rate.
Although obviously if you charge it at 100mAh, it won't mean you now have a 100mAh capacity battery.
