I am looking for a new charger, The charger i have now takes about 1hr and 25 min to charge 1) 7cell 8.4v 3000mah NiMH battery for my Stampede. So Dose anybody know how long it will take to charge my Battery?

It depends...
For example: if you are charging a NiMH that is 3000mah, you will charge it at 3 amps and it will take 1 hour. If you have a 5000 mah, you will charge it at 5 amp and it will take 1h. (charging at 1C)
IF you are charging LIPOs; then depending if your cells are off, it could take longer because you "balance charge"; and off course that if you have any battery larger (more capacity) than 6000mah it will take more than 1 hour because the EZ Plus max charging is 6 amp.
I hope that I made sense
Cheers

Yep approximately 45 minutes depending on how discharged the batt is.

Thanks guys, I guess i discharge mine too low, It takes more then 45min for my 3000mah 8.4v battery. I am okay with that though. I have 2 ezpeak chargers. When i go li-po i will get the ez peak plus.
Approximately 45 min or 1 Hour.
