My Titanium branded 4500mah C NiMhs in my FT-3C (TV1J) fresh off the charger only pulled 1.5a. I get higher current readings with fresh Enegizer Max alkalines (1.5-16a). I hear reports of TV1J FT-3Cs pulling around 2a or very close to it on fresh 4500mah NiMhs. Of course I'm not wanting to run it at those current levels, I was just concerned about the performance of my cells.
The NiMhs are only on it's second charge. Rechargeables were supposed to get better in capacity after cycles it's first few times, correct? Or are my cells just flat out bunk or not meeting the 4500mah spec?
I don't know much about batteries specnically speaking so any help is appreciated.
Thanks
