It should work fine if it has a standard style Tamiya connector.

It depends on the rating of the charger.

Charge time is battery capacity divide charger rating.

For example a standard UK Heng Long charger is 400mA rating therefore a 2000mAh battery will be

2000 divide by 400 = 5 (hours)

But if your getting higher capacity batteries you should get a better charger which should be able to charge it quicker i.e. 2 hours.
