    Maha MH-C9000 SUPPORT / FAQ - continuation

    Charging At Below 0.5C... Thanks! :wave: As I probably said here (DEFINITELY said on other forums where I've created lengthy FAQs), I usually immerse myself in a topic for several months at a time. Then, when I feel that I've learned, and shared, as much as I can, I move onto my next topic of...

    Maha MH-C9000 SUPPORT / FAQ - continuation

    ...adapters I have. I needed to use a tiny screwdriver to slightly bow the contacts away from the plastic so that they would reach the contacts on my chargers *BEFORE* the plastic shoulders surrounding them contacted the plastic shoulders on the chargers. Just a thought. :thinking: Thanks! :)

    4x AA NiMH in series discharge @ different rates. Why?

    ...your logic completely. In a series circuit, each NiMH cell is at its individual voltage (~1.2VDC -> ~0.9VDC), while the current through each is *EXACTLY* the same, until it poops out. Then the current being FORCED through it by the remaining cells will eventually 'Reverse Charge' it and...

    4x AA NiMH in series discharge @ different rates. Why?

    ...on the GREEN LINK in my Sig Line. I agree with Mr Happy and, IIRC, the majority of the AA/AAA NiMH users here. Start out with the C9000 - it's a *MUCH* better product. To charge 4 2000mAh AAs @ 1000mA (0.5C), you just insert the cells and press ENTER 8 times. And the 'Break-In' function is...

    Actually:-DeltaV Max Voltage Max Temp Max TimeBut the C9000 is so gentle, with its Max Voltage set @ 1.47VDC, I believe that is the most used. AFAICT, I've never seen my C9000 terminate on Max Temp. TTA's NiMH/NiCD Battery Charger Specifications Thread: Maha MH-C9000

    can i solder wires to magnets and attach magnets to battery for charging?

    Better to Use Terminals... A washer is so 'crude'. :eek: I use: AMP Ring Terminals Size 22-16 (except the box of 1250 that I bought at a Computer Fair a couple of decades ago are insulated and non-insulated was the first GOOGLE LINK which included a picture ;) ).

    Pulse Charging NiMh Batteries?

    Before you get too excited, if you own a voltmeter, take a voltage reading of the cells INSIDE the 401fs right when the charger signals 'Done'. Then, remove the cells and let them 'rest' for 2 hours. THEN, discharge them in the C9000. You might be seeing 'Surface Charge'. The C9000 is a very...

    MH-C9000 and Eneloops charge rate

    If you want consistency, you'll use 0.2C for Discharge - the same rate as BREAK-IN. That way *ALL* of your Discharge Capacities are 'comparable' to one another. If BREAK-IN uses 0.2C (400mA for a 2000mAh AA) and you use 0.4C (800mA for a 2000mAh AA), you can't compare the Capacities - 0.4C will...
