Fair enough, and thanks too.

The promatch site is still down at present, but they are one of the best nimh brands out there, along with SpecPointConcepts (http://www.specpointbatteries.com/), you cant go wrong with either really.

The charger you picked out is very nice, very new too as I check out Modelsport on a regular basis. My only concern would be that it doesnt have an adjustable charge rate, its fixed at 5amps.

I know that version only does one battery at a time, but its adjustable from 0.5 upto 5amps, which would be much better and safer for the nimhs- less chance of overheating due to a high charge rate (nimh should never be hot off the charger, no more than 'quite warm' ideally). So far as I understand anyway, been a while since I had nimhs.

A123s would be a good upgrade in the future, as they dont need an LVC, and are quite simple to look after, plus the power output is comparable to lipos so its the ideal battery for most general users. We'll always be on hand to advise at anyrate- rc-monster is a great website and forum with some of the friendliest, intelligent and funny people you will come across.
