Batt charger

[typhoon_driver]

By using a dapter with the astroflight charger. Basically it tricks the charger into thinking it's working with nicads and monitors the voltage of the A123s. Once it reaches a the appropriate voltage for the A123s it tells the charger that the pack is full.

It doesn't balance the pack but I never found a problem not balancing the cells. A132s can pretty much be treated like nicads and nimh in this respect.

If I shift this charger I may well shift the dapter too along with the A123 pack I used in hornet, interested?

Actually we bought the Fusion Paladrin charger recently for £89.99. It does 1-30 NIMH packs as well. It come with a 12cell balancer which seem to sell on ebay for about £40.

What voltage are your batteries ?
because 28 cells is 33.6 volts.

well the cells will be holding more than the spedificed volts so will probs be in excess of 36v when fully charged
