The Triton is a great charger for the money. There are a few dumb
things about the software, such as the way it erases the total mAh put
into a NiMh cell after it goes into top-off mode, but by and large it
is a very good unit. And again, you can't beat the price.
I use it for all

Thanks all. It sure looked like it would do everything I wanted.
You collectively confirmed my suspicions. My Triton is on order.

Jon,
Thanks for the tip on seeing total mAh! That helps.
Yes, I set the timer, which goes up to 960 minutes (or thereabouts),
which translates into 16 hours - perfect cutoff for formation charges.
The downsides to using the Triton for this are:
1) You have to remember to reset the delta peak,

Cameron,
Formation charges are required for preparing new NiMh packs. You
simply charge the pack at a current level equal to 1/10th of the pack
capacity for around 12-16 hours
until the NiMH battery peak had been
reached
and then it switched to C/20 indefinitely.
Thank you for the info.
Cameron

I like my Triton too, but in addition to the things that Doug McLaren listed,
I'd like to add:
(1) I don't like the banana plug connections for your charging adaptors. If
you happen to unplug those from the charger before disconnecting your battery
from the other end of the adaptor, you run the
I dont have any experience with
this charger although I briefly looked into buying one myself. However, I
opted to purchase a Schulze isl 6-330d charger instead.
