I charge on 700 because otherwise takes a looong time.

Like that refresh mode and that it tells you battery capacity.

Its possible to charge too slowly and have chargers not be able to accurately determine when the battery is fully charged and over charge much like if you charge too fast.

Not to hijack a thread, I'm looking at a "Tenergy" brand recharger and wondered if anyone here has an opinion on the quality of the brand.
Thanks

I don't have a good answer to your question about Tenergy rechargers, but I would recommend you check out CandlePower Forums. They have a subforum devoted to batteries and charging units.
