battery help!

[AIRSOFT FREAK]

probably a noob question if i shoot my gun for a bit like 20 mins do i wait to it gets low to charge or can i charge right away after so it is full? thanks i have a wall timer so i do not charge for more then 6 hrs it is a 8.4V 4/5SC 1200mAh P NI-Cd battery for an ak kraken is that a pretty weak battery and am i over charging it thanks!

I think it messes up the battery memory or something like that and wont allow it to charge to its fullest, search battery memory

Memory effect will occur if you do not discharge a NiCd battery completely and charge it say half way.

hey thanks for the response is there a bigger better battery for the kraken that you could sell or give me info ona a brand/what kind thanks

Memory effect will appear after 20+ incomplete discharge.

1- Get a real charger. A wall kind of thing is only a powersupply.
2- You can get a lot of other brand battery. If you can fit a normal Sub-C pack, you can get 5000mAh packs.
