    AmazonBasics AA batteries

    I have four (4) AmazonBasics AA batteries. I go to charge them in my Maha-Powerex C9000 charger and every function the charger is set on produces "HIGH' for these batteries. Are they useless? Also what does the "1.2v min 2400mah" mean on batteries?

    2/3 AAA charger needed

    Thanks for the reply. I went to Overready but wasn't specifically sure what to buy :shakehead. The 2/3 AAA was supplied with a Next Generation IR/RF kit that has a built-in charger for either the 2/3 AAA in the sleeve or separate. When I use the supplied sleeve w/battery in the mh-c9000 to...

    2/3 AAA charger needed

    I have 2 Jeff Ni-MH 2/3 AAA Rechargeable Battery Batteries 1.2V 400mah that came with a NextGen 433mhz IR/RF kit that has a built in charger. I'm having problems with the built in charger and would like to know if there's a specific charger for these batteries? I own the Powerex MH-C9000...

    Understanding Maha C9000 results

    Thank you for the pictorial description! I'm saving a notebook on my pc. Is there a means to instantly determine (on the C9000)a cell's current mA status; other than whether or not the performance of a device is sub-par? IOW, when I pop a cell into the C9000 is there a setting or indication...

    Understanding Maha C9000 results

    I did as suggested; Discharged. mah results are 772, 771, 766 and 753. So next I should charge @ 400?, since the mah results are above 700 for all four (no need for Analyze/Refresh). Are mah results of Discharge and Charge cycles one in the same? Why the low discrepancy Charge rates...

    Understanding Maha C9000 results

    Is it required to put all 4 on Refresh/Analyze or just the one(s) below 700mah? Since reading a cell's voltage is not a true indicator of cell capacity; how do I determine this on the C-9000? During the Charge/Discharge mode etc., is the mah reading (before DONE) the current capacity of the...

    If by "top up" you mean Charge cycle. Yes, that's what I did. Thanks

    Understanding Maha C9000 results

    Yesterday I charged 4 Sanyo AAA's; each voltage was around 1.2x-v precharged. Only one charged at 706mah. The remaining were 255, 256 and 232mah. Why would this be so low? The voltages after charging were 1.46v for all 4. Minutes ranged from 118, 42, 42 and 39. Is it maH or voltage as the...

    When.. to charge Sanyo Eneloops?

    I have Sanyo's AA/AAA batteries. Often they're lying around and I forget if they're charged or not. I use a digital VOM and assume they're fully charged if they register in the 1.3x range. Is this range feasible to say they don't require charging? Is the voltage different for AA and AAA? I...

    Powerex MH-C9000 - new Sanyo Eneloops

    Thank you. I am following/making note of your expertise. Regarding your 1st EDIT, I charged them not discharged. So, I gather the low maH reading I received (after a CHARGE) was only that what was put into the cells (not the full capacity).? In other words, to get the maximum potential I...

    Powerex MH-C9000 - new Sanyo Eneloops

    Thank you for your input; which I agree with in full, but is there a reason why the maH readings after a charge is way below the listed 800mah rating? So, when I purchase new Sanyo's... all that's required is to use them (out of the package) and charge them when depleted; really no need for...

    Powerex MH-C9000 - new Sanyo Eneloops

    I'm trying to follow but you guys are light years ahead of me :laughing:. I'm at the basics. I noticed my remote control wasn't responding as it should so all I did was charge the AAA 1500x eneloops. What baffles me is that the maH reads as follows: Cell 1, 284mah, #2-279maH, #3-300maH...

    Powerex MH-C9000 - new Sanyo Eneloops

    Thanks... regarding the above, either choice I decide that results with Discharge, I assume it's necessary to Charge that battery before using it? What Mode is recommended? Again, I assume Charge. Is there a benefit for using a volt-ohm meter to measure voltage?

    Powerex MH-C9000 - new Sanyo Eneloops

    Thanks for the valuable information; it's saved as a file. Do I have this right; for a new cell (to determine the current capacity) it should be discharged? What is "full capacity"; is it maH after charge/discharge? My thinking is that a discharge/charge = full capacity. I open for...
