It seems that, because it measures voltage instead of time, the
faster method would be better. Maybe I am confused; what does the
BN use and can Support Information change it?
Have a great day,
Alex

Subject: [Braillenote] forming charge
Hi Matthew and Joseph,
there are basically two ways to charge a Nickel-based battery.
One
is using quite a high current, does it quite fast, and decides to
stop
when the battery voltage reaches a peak. The other, forming
charge,
uses a low current, takes a long time and decides to stop after a
certain number of hours.
since our forming charge is timed, it's not good to do it on a
full battery.
regards,
Andy.
