Charger for Geodimeter Battery NiCd, external, 7.0 Ahm 12V

Post by sako »

I had the battery re-celled (battery Plus), they didn't have any charger for it. I have been using a "Class 2 Power Supply KNU-1485 Zenith Barrel Plug :: 14V 850mA" charger. The problem is, I never know when the battery is fully charged. Does anybody who has this type of battery, uses a type of charger that has an indicator that let's you know when the battery is charged fully?
Thanks

Ok, this info is for people who have the same problem.
I bought a "Hitech Smart Battery Charger/ Discharger" for that black geodimeter battery. The company's name is "Airsoft".

Not exactly sure which battery your talking about, but I have a couple older chargers that may work with any luck. Let me look at the house and see what I find. Have you contacted "Day Saver Batteries", as Bruce can work wonders for you if I don't have a charger.

Go into a hobby shop for RC models and pick up a "smart charger" make sure it is for NICADS though, and make sure it WAS NICADs, not NIMH or LIpos that were installed in your battery pack. You don't want to charge a Lipo with a Nicad charger. I rebuild our packs all the time and use a smart charger at home to give them their initial charge. Works great.
