Fast charging 7.2v batteries?

[Victor]

I have a ansman AC 30 charger and it has a fast charger mode (takes 30 mins) and trickle charge mode.

is it worth fast charging?
anybody else here own a fast charger use the fast charging function?

i think the ansman ac30 is a intelligent charger, so fast charging would be fine
regards, ice

It also depends on the quality of the battery

Charging current 2.3A fast, 180mA slow
Charging time 30 min depending on battery capacity



Hmmm doesnt read up to well. A fixed fast charge of 2.3 amps only, for the 30 minutes its suggesting that works out to a 1.15 amp 7.2 stick pack...

What capacity stick pack batteries do you have?

If it`s set at fast, it will take about 50 minutes for the 2300 and 40 minutes or so for the 1800.
