Is it ok to charge my 5b maxamps 5cell 4700mah hump pack with the charger that came with my tmaxx 3.3?
 
should be fine, although you may not have the right plug on the end. what mah does the charger charge at? is it adjustable?
 
IDK, i just happened to pass by the hobby store and picked up a Prophet Plus nimh peak charger cus the traxxas one was pissing me off. What amp's should i be charging the pack at?
 
4.7 amps should get it peaked in an hour. Take the MaH and take the last two numbers and seperate them with a decimal and you have the one C rating on ow to charge the pack. Some people go up and above the C rating but you risk damaging the pack I don't see why people would go above the C rating because it'll charge it in an hour with having it at the C rating. Hope this helps out bud.
