I just got my n cell nimh 500mah batts from www.battlepack.com and charged them.
When I measured the current, I found the .35 amp rated L1 emitters getting clobbered with 1.35 amps at only 3.9 volts!! /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/ooo.gif /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/icon15.gif
I then remeasured it with rad shack nimh 360s and found it still at .82 amps at 4.0 volts
Both my v2 turbos are doing the same thing with these batteries and appear to be undamaged at this point.
They stay comfortable to hold with the rad shack batts, but get hot with the battlepack batteries.
Any comments welcome. I'm confused now.
