Call Rachelle at Duralite. I use theirs in my transmitters and charge them just because I know I should :lol: . I have never dropped the voltage to a level that would even warrant charging, even when doing a bunch of bench set-up work!

Look for the 136TX9C 1300Mah pack

Don't worry about the price of Lithium battery systems, you will not regret it!

Hope this helps!

I just don't get it. I have no argument with using LiIon packs in any application, but over $100 for a 1300Mah pack when a 2100 Mah NiMh pack (Sanyo cells) can be had for $34 is a bit over the top. It's just a matter of economics, $.077/Mah for LiIon and $.016/Mah for NiMh. IMHO 5X the price is a bit much to be on the leading edge of technology.

That is true.
