How long would you charge a 3000mh 7.2v NiMH on a Hobbico 905 NiCD charger?
I believe the 905 is a 3 amp charger at fast rate. My math tells me 1 hour?
I'm shopping for a peak NiMH charger...any suggestions? TIA!

Continental U.S., probably central states, e.g. Iowa.

I'm gonna assume you aren't racing regularly and want something well
built witha good warranty and get's the job done well.

Go with a Dynamite Peak Charger:

www.dynamiterc.com

They have a few different models, but about $40.00 US will get the job
done with either AC wall current or 12VDC.

How exactly do you configure the 959 for NiMH?

I just got one with no manual :-(
