So I haven't played since last April...awful I know. Broke out all my stuff and did some test firing only to realize that my batteries won't hold a charge. I have an Tenergy 9.6 1600 nimh and 2 UB 9.6 1600 nimh. I have the Dpower (Blue in colour) charger and have it set for 1.8A when charging....not sure the difference between 0.9 and 1.8A. Also - one of the UB batts got so hot during the recharge it melted some of the plastic....that prolly is not a good thing.

Are the batteries now dead? Do I keep charging these things in the hope the juice comes back? Do I buy a new charger that can discharge/charge/discharge...repeat. Do I go lipo going forward?

Thanks,
ToeTag
