Alright guys another quick question for the experts,

I have just bought a Tamiya Lunch Box for some retro fun and I am strugling with the settings on the BC6.

I am trying to charge a 7.2v 3700mah Nicd pack.

One thing I dont get in the set up menu you have to set the cut off voltage for Nicd's. it goes from 5mV to 20mV i think per cell, how does this work as a mV is a thousendth of a volt? its default is 12mV.

Also what are the other settings I should use, I have read the manual but it is not only vauge but translated a bit badly as well.

Cheers for any help john.

No need to change the Mv settings, the default is fine.

Cut off voltage is in the discharge function and when you discharge should be set to .8v per cell.

for ni-xx, there is not much to set at all.
