Charging 4AA Eneloops (5-6 years old, but in good condition) at 1000mA in test mode (500mA discharge). Fan is running under the charger. After 30 minutes, everything is OK, charger and cells are cold, but power adapter is warm. About 45 degrees Celsius if not higher (finger test). Ambient temperature is high - 28C (83F).
Will report how it finished.
btw, measuring voltage of power adapter with no load, im getting 3,13-3.14V
EDIT:
First charging cycle was perfect (took 45 minutes) cells barely warm at the end, maybe 40C (ambient temp is 29C), all cells terminated within 1 minute at 1,52V.
2,5h into discharging, all cells are at 1,18V.
EDIT2:
Discharging completed, second (last) cycle of charging started
