Max voltage of Powercell packs?

[73Rusty]

Is it the same as the subC packs? :unsure: Did a search, did'nt come up with anything.

If you are talking about their 7 cell packs they should come off the charger at 10.5v or so

Nominal voltage is 8.4v

The 7.2v, Old age setting in can't remember LOL.

[crusey_aus]

Any 6 cell pack will peak at around 9v straight off the charger

Cheers

Yeah it's 9v I use a voltometer now that my chargers busted and I'm stuck with a 7hour wall charger.... Thinkin about changing the transformer out to a 1amp.....

Thanks guys, Have not used NiMH in a long time, could'nt remember. Going to use the Powercells till they die, then switch to lipo.

I thought I dropped a cell (hotter then 180* on one. Melted shrink wrap and wouldn't perform well) I just manually cycled it softly and it came back to life. Just becareful that you check your volts and stress a pack out. Series or parallel
