I bought a used battery recharger at a yard sale from a guy who says
it worked fine. I got it home and tried it on four batteries, but
they didn't charge correctly. The batteries are each 2200 mAh. The
recharger says on it:
output: 2x (2.9V -- 800 mA) 4.64 VA
I calculated that if the recharger is outputting 800 mA, that it would
take about three hours to fully recharge a 2200 mAh battery. The
recharger has slots for four batteries, so I put four in for just over
3 hours, and they didn't really seemed charged at all when I was
finished. So I was wondering if maybe the recharger is actually only
ouputting 200 mA per slot (800 divided by four) or 400 mA per slot if
there are four batteries at a time.
Any ideas? Thanks in advance,
John
