what is the highest amp rate you can charge an 1100mah 6 cell battery at? thanks
thats the max i would charge it at is about 4 amps.
What size cell are we talking here?
2/3AA-3 amps MAX
sub C-4 amps MAX
Only in emergency though (dead pack right before main etc) your regular everyday charges should be at about 1/2 of that max rate.
I have a little 1100 pack and i do .8 regularly, if you had to you could prolly do like 4 but i wouldnt try it.
...lol. charge it at 1 amp for an hour. Your pack will last alot longer.
I'm with j-dub. I'd charge it at 1 amp. Should charge in less than hour (unless it's completely dead).
When you charge at very high amps, you'll get a faster charge and good short term performance, but the battery won't last as long on a full charge. Charge at low amps and obviously it'll take longer to charge, you'll get reduced short term performance, but the battery will last longer.
I've found that charging say a 1100 at 1.1 or a 3300 at 3.3 (etc) is a good balance.
