Hi, all, just a quick question. I just bought a lot of 6 NI-MH aftermarket (IMAX_EXPERT) batteries for the Jedi. I am trying to charge them in a NTN8831A Tri-Chem charger.
I know that the charger works fine (At lest with Ni-CD Jedi and Saber batteries). The issue is that the NI-MH batteries are getting VERY hot. Right now I actually have a band-aid on my finger with some burn gel from one of the charging contacts on the back of the battery. That was when I decided to stop charging them and ask here ;-)
They ARE charging, Right now I am listening to county fire/EMS on a MT2000 with one I already charged, and they were almost DOA, so I know they are charging, it just seems a bit strange they are this hot.
Is it normal for NI-MH batteries to get this hot?
Thanks
Matt
