this looks like just what i want, but i have no idea of how to connect it up to my spektrum dx3 radio, or even my hyperion duo charger for that matter - which just has deans on it.
the dx3 has a battery case in it that holds 8 AA batteries, and then you just put the battery case back in and it connects up with these 2 silver connectors. no idea how i would plug in a separate battery, as there is no port or anything
I use the Energizer and Duracel AA's. They are 2400 & 2500 mah and with the quick charger they fully charge in about 5 to 10 minutes. You can get the charger with 4 AA's for about $30 at wal-Mart or Target. We are lucky because they sell AA four packs in the military PX for less than $8, and no tax.

5-10 minutes? thats awesome! got a link by any chance?
Yea I know that they are selling them in the UK. I was there last year and saw them in a couple of stores, but at a huge increase in price. Of course the exchange rate was killing us back then. Once I calculated the currency exchange the cost was like $75 for the charger and 4 AA's. Make sure that you get the quick charger or it will take you like 2 to 3 hours to charge them up. I use them for everything in our house (remotes, flashlights, video game controllers, clocks, and wireless PC gear, and all of my R/C stuff) and they work great. We now have like 6 quick chargers in use because the boys have several R/C toys that they play with on a daily basis. Compared to most of the other nmh AA's out there these batteries are much better in performance and well worth the price. I try to stay away from using alkaline batteries all together now. I have some of these AA's that I have been using for a couple of years and they are still working fine. Good luck finding what you need and at a good price. Cheers Mate.
