No such thing as a stupid...
« on: September 29, 2009, 09:39:22 pm »

I've got a SLA 12v 1.2Ah rechargeable  battery to charge and using an Omni battrey charger, plugged into the mains, no matter what setting its on the red light keeps flashing, not steady as in normal charge mode, whats up with that?

On my charger it indicates that the charger has gone into trickle mode as the battery is nearly fully charged. Or it could mean that your battery is kaput  <:(

...here's another, if using a 7.2 volt battery pack, whats the difference in the amperage ratings, ie 1800 as opposed to 2500, and what effect would it have on your motor?

There is no effect on your motor, you would just have a longer run time with the 2500 mah battery than you would with the 1800 mah
