Ni-Cd charger so so hot

[bubba 26]

I have a dynamite 7.2 v 800ma charger and after about 2hrs the things temp is 156.F when i shoot it with my PE-1 gun. Is this normal ? I'm charging a 1500mAh dyn battery. :\

The charger should be warm to the touch. Is the charger too hot to touch with your hand for more than a couple of seconds? If so, You might want to consider replacing it with a better charger. As for the reading with your temp gun, I have never really thought about using one, so I cn't really be of much help in that area.

I can still hold it in my hand . But I wish the manufcturers would put the operating temp on the box / unit . So I could know the max temp for sure.
