What do you mean you "charged them with 11 volts"? A car battery charger is a constant voltage type charger and isn't meant to be used with NiMH...
Would I do this process again? Probably not. I am broke right now and honestly the only reason I am doing this is because I don't have ~$1500 to...
Here is the data as of now. You can see significant capacity gains were made doing a discharge down to 3 volts, over going down only to 6 volts....
Here is what the 5th cycle, going down to 2.9V has done so far. Cell 27: 4020~5093MAh Cell 13: 4494~5050MAh Cell 16: 4502~4802MAh I am doing this...
Happy to report on the 2nd cycle, I took the module that was at 4020MAh down to 2.9 volts. After an all night recharge, it retested at 5093MAh....
Happy to report after a couple nights of hard rain, rear area of the car was dry as a bone. I sanded and painted the area I fixed, it doesn't...
All the cells have been done. The lowest capacity one tested at 4020MAh, so I am redoing a cycle on it to see if it will come up or not. 2nd...
Lots of things can happen. I know a couple people who own a 2nd vehicle just for long trips, and it might get 3,000 miles a year put on it. That...
Same nonsense here in Iowa. I see so many beefy trucks, duallys, 3/4 tons, diesels, etc that cost upwards of $90,000...and the most payload the...
Ya, because they started it at only $5, lol.
Could have sworn I posted the link. Edit: what the heck, the link disappears when I hit reply. https://tinyurl.com/4ab6sz97
Way too far away for me to consider. But other than a couple dents, body looks pretty darn nice.

Still trying to figure out the resistance meter function. Says 122 MΩ on one module, surely that can't be right? Does the MΩ go down when fully...
Picked up a Hitec branded charger for $42 at the hobby store going out of business. Reg like $70. This one has a built in resistance meter, which...
Here is the data as of this afternoon. 4 modules now have over 5000MAh of capacity, or 77% of original capacity, which is quite good for 14 year...
Here are some times: Charging each module at 0.5A to the 7200MAh cutoff with the hobby charger generally takes 15 hours. Two modules are being...

It is my understanding that NiMH cells/modules are designed to be charged with constant current and NOT constant voltage. That is why using a car...
