The Dauphin Posted February 26, 2012 Posted February 26, 2012 Hi How long should I be charging a 1600 MA Nihm battery for with a 300Ma charger? I have only been doing them for 1.5-2 hours is this enough or too much? Thanking you in advance
bigshep Posted February 29, 2012 Posted February 29, 2012 Battery capacity divided by charger output multiplied by 1.4 will equal charging time in hours. example.....1100 / 250 x 1.4 = 6.16 hours. taken from another site, but plenty of easy to use google calculators as well. http://homepage.ntlworld.com/phopewell/airsoft/chargetimes/ http://www.csgnetwork.com/batterychgcalc.html So for yours I would say around 7 and a half hours to 8 hours charge to full charge, 2 hours will barely tickle it!

joshcowin Posted March 1, 2012 Posted March 1, 2012 it should be 5.2hours. For example if you have a 500 mah charger and a 5000 mah battery it will take 10 hours
AF-UK Founding Member Deva Posted March 1, 2012 AF-UK Founding Member Posted March 1, 2012 That would be correct if you had 100% efficiency Josh, but unfortunately electronics aren't that good.
The Dauphin Posted March 4, 2012 Author Posted March 4, 2012 Many Thanks. I have only been charging them for 2 hours.
