Recommended guidelines for handling 2/3A NiMH batteries:

• 1. Charge the battery with a quality charger, at a maximum current of 1.5A.
• 2. Charger cut-off setting: Peak voltage = 5mV per cell, Temperature <55ºC, and best with timer. [Example on Peak voltage calculation: 6-cell pack = 5mV x 6 = 0.03V]
• 3. The battery can offer high current discharge, and are rated to a level of 5~10A (plug dependent).
• 4. If you expect to leave the battery idle for >2 weeks, charge it for 1/3 capacity (say, 1A for 15 minutes)
• 5. Avoid storing the battery in hot or humid environment. Best temperature would be around 20~25ºC.
