The danger with a low charge rate is that peaks are harder to detect, so you run the risk of overcharging your battery if your charger doesn't have a safety timer or a temperature probe. My Triton has no problems detecting peaks even at a C/4 charge rate with NiMH cells, and so I suspect that your Reflex won't either. | >Do you tend to abbuse your batteries? | | No. -- Doug McLaren, [EMAIL PROTECTED] The only time you have too much fuel is when you're on fire.
