| This is a Pre-Assembled 6 cell, 3600mAh Nickel Metal Hydride Battery Pack.
NIMH Batteries Have A Different Chemistry Than NiCd Batteries So They Require Different Charging
Methods (See COMMENTS).
FEATURES:
Pre-assembled NiMH Sub-C size cells for use with 1/10 scale R/C vehicles
Also great for electric airplane
Offers 50%+ longer run times verses 2000mAh packs
Great for endurance racing
Higher average voltage means more power verses NiCd packs
Ni-MH cells have no discharge memory so there is no need to deep discharge them by shorting out the
cells. This damages the cells.
No need to be recycled, NiMH cells are environmentally friendly
INCLUDES:
One Assembled 6 cell, 3600mAh NiMH Battery Pack w/Tamiya Connector
REQUIRES:
Charger: Having Negative DeltaV or Zero DeltaV Peaking capabilities
Discharger: Having capabilities to properly discharge batteries
SPECS:
Charge Rate: 3-4A with a delta peak detection set at 10-20 millivolts (.01 to .02V)
Height: 0.96" (24.5mm)
Width: 1.8" (47.1mm)
Length: 5.4" (136.3mm)
Weight: 11.2oz (317g)
Maximum Cycles Per Day: Three, with a 1 to 2 hour rest period between cycles
Dead Shorting: Not Recommended
COMMENTS:
Do Not dead short the cells after discharging or store them with a resistor across the pack. They do not
need this and it damages the battery pack. Store cells with voltage in them.
Use a digital voltmeter if your charger does not have one, to monitor the voltage. As soon as the voltage
stops rising, the pack is charged. Do not let voltage drop like you would with NiCd cells.
Charger MUST be able to adjust the negative peak charge rate.
Heat or overcharging will deteriorate or damage NiMH cells. |
