Default NIMH batteries - slightly OT

Mr. Moore did not mention any specifics on how he detects peak.

I am using a very basic one stage peak charger similar to your Prodigy
II. I charge my Eneloops at 2A. Peak is not adjustable.

Looks like I just wasted my money on the Ansmann batteries, then, and
need to get a set of eneloops.

On last overnight discharge on the UBA III+ the Ansmanns managed 500 mAh,
but today (2.5 amp charge, 0.5A discharge on the Prodigy II) they would
only show a bit under 400 mAh capacity. Junk. NOT recommended. Avoid them.

Thanks for your data and advice.
