Re: Pulse Charging

Whodi...that's amazing. I might seriously implement that in my charger. I have two questions about the findings, though. One, why
did they overcharge the batteries 5-20%? Two, why did they still only get 40Ah instead of 50? Although I might give up some range
for life, it's quite a bit to lose.
OK, three questions. Can you just double the current to make the charging time the same? Or do you have to limit it to the usual?
(Or, at C/8 or so, is the usual not limited by the batteries?)

I wonder if NiMH gasses...it does use hydrogen, right?
