i have this battery for my mini -t

i am able to read believe it or not but i was wondering about how long tom charge it. yeah ,yeah it says 2 hour quick charge but i would figure i would get more than 15 minutes of run time with it. also i have no way of detecting peak charge on it. somewhere i read that after a battery has peaked in its charge it converts the excess charge to heat. after the 2 hour charge time, this battery is still cold. any suggestions?

also i have this battery

i have a cheezy 9 buck ofna charger that is 6 volt and 120mA output. does this mean i need to charge it for 10 hours to get a full charge?

again any help would be great.

i know alot aobut eletrics and when i get my bateries i let them charge for about 2 hours at first and then use them and then i will put them on my peak charger and then everything is fine but since you dont have a peak charger you should just wait about 30 min for charging. it shoulc be fully charged by then. The heat thing is right and wrong its right b/c it does start to give off heat but not that much. but if you leave it on to long it will just keep on charging those batteries and some cheap ones have een known to explode. I have had it happen to me when i was a newbie with electrics . if i were you i wouldn'teave them on for more then an hour after the first 2 hour charge or it could do damage to both your batt. and your charger. or even worse it could start a fire like at my house.
