Default R1Wurks Charging

This is probably in the wrong section, sorry.
Question: Does anyone know if I can charge my R1Wurks (AAAs) in a standard NiMH wall charger without doing serious damage to the batteries?

as long as the charger is AAA capable, R1Wurks are Ni-Mh batteries

though you might want to switch to a good smart charger that does the full discharge/charge cycle unlike the cheap ones that only do the charging half. you'll get reduced runtimes after several charges with cheap chargers.

I think most chargers for rechargeable batteries are of the peak to peak sort, so as long as make sure i drain my batteries of everything they have before I fill them up again I don't think I'll need to worry about shortening the life of them, thanks for reminding me of that though.
