Using Your Charge-It-All Sport Charger:

 

 

Recommended Charge Rates

 

 

 

We recommend choosing a charge rate for NiMH batteries that is close to

Before using your charger for the first time, please read and

 

 

 

 

the batteries’ rated mAH capacity (e.g., charge a 2000mAH NiMH battery

understand the warnings listed on the front page. Failure to

 

 

 

 

at no more than 2 amps). For NiCD batteries, we recommend choosing a

understand and follow these warnings can result in damage to the

 

 

 

 

charge rate that is 1-3 times the batteries’ rated mAH capacity (e.g., charge

charger, your flight battery or worse.

 

 

 

 

a 1400mAH NiCD battery at 2-4 amps).

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Plug the desired input cord into the back of the charger (either 12V DC
