Useful tip from our battery supplier...
Our battery supplier often gets asked - "How do I know how long to charge my batteries?"
The following is their useful and comprehensive reply to the above query:-
"Most of our battery chargers are automatic. Follow the charging instructions that came with your charger. For most battery chargers with LED lights the RED light on indicates charging in progress and the GREEN light on indicates charging completed. You can also calculate the approximate charge time using this method. Divide the desired charge mAh by the charge rate of your battery charger mA. For example to charge 1600 mAh rated batteries that are fully discharged it would take about 2 hours using a charger with a charge rate of 850 mA. (1600/850 = 1.88 hrs.)"
So there you have the definitive answer in a nutshell... I know previous posts covered this query, but none so succinctly!
