The peak charger will monitor you battery as its being charged and shut off when its reached its peak charge.� Using this will prolong the life of of your batteries and ensure you are charged up all the way before removing it from the charger.�

�

These chargers are close to $140 when bought elsewhere and then you still have to get an $80 transformer.� We have developed our own charger that does the same thing at more than 1/2 the price.� It includes a LCD for monitoring the status of your battery.��

�

The peak battery charger comes in an easy to assemble kit that requires soldering.� There are no surface mount parts and everything is spaced out on at least 0.1" spacing.� The heart of the charger is a PIC chip that we flash a program.� All you have to do is plug it into the board and it will tender your battery when charging.� Follow this link for assembly and operation (450kb, updated 11/22/2004)

You need to purchase a transformer to go with this.� The higher the mA, the faster the battery will charge.� If you use too low of a voltage transformer, the battery won't fully charge.� If you use too high of a voltage transformer, the battery or transformer will be damaged.� The table below is a chart that can be used to safely and effectively select the right transformer to charge your batteries.
