glow igniters and receiver packs

[RCNub]

Hello all, i was given a bunch of standard wall charges and i am against wall chargers , thus, i m wondering if it is possible to make an adapter to a brain charger for receiver packs and glow igniters.

i am unsure because teh wire is so thin on the receiver packs and the glow igniters....dont really have a + or - displayed:\

Thanks in advance

Read the output of the wall charger for the glow ignitor, and see if your able to set your charger to it. Your charger needs to be 5 cell/1 amp capable to charge your rx pack. That photo tells us nothing. Need the specs.

yes, you can. That charger is well equiped to handle pretty much any NiMH NiCAD combo you have:

I'm guessing you don't have a volt meter of any type? Your charger will probably sense if you have a single cell plugged in backwards anyway. The description on tower says "Reverse and short circuit protection", which means it would tell you if you plug it in backwards.

Center is red/positive, outer is black/negative. If your just clipping an end off one of the wall chargers, all you can do is wire it up to a couple banana plugs and plug it in. If your charger beeps or shows you a negative voltage, flip the plugs and mark them.
