Just charged the battery

[SgtTalbert]

Just charged the battery and the smart charger beeps saying 'full' after about 2hrs...

That doesnt seem right for a never used/charged 8.4 2200 battery surely?

Really paranoid its going to last 30mins on sunday...

Charging at 1amp should take 2.63 hours.

What charging rate are you using?

Thought a picture might help

Yeah that's ok 1amp takes approx' 2 hours as I said.

I always charge mine at about 0.5 amps,I'm never in a rush for them and general opinion is that slower is better.

Ah ok, so now its charged, it should last all day?

Cheers,

I can't say for sure,I use 2 x 1750's in a day but I do change at lunch time wether or not I need too.

It will be as charged as much as it can be so if it doesn't last it's not the fault of the battery,it will depend on use(semi,full-auto),weather conditions and of course your aeg.

Ok thank you

 

[bigshep]

an 2200 will give you around 10-15x m4 hicaps worth of shooting if thats any help
