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

Alright thanks guys was afraid I'd have to buy an expensive charger lol

well if you want to you can buy one of them multi purpose chargers that charge everything, and then just build yourself a charging rack, but even one of thoose is only $40 and can charge any battery you'll use in RC

$40 is alright, but i just dumped like 150 into the hobby so don't feel like spending much for the time being lol

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.

XMD is very correct, but just incase later you are interested in a smart charger=

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.
