Ni-Mh rechargables

hi I'm about to buy a couple of sets of nimh rechargeables. at the moment i have one set of 1100 mAh, i am looking to get larger capacity sets ie 2500 mAh's. will these be ok to charge in the charger i got with the old batteries, or do i need a new charger.. the charger states...(1.4v--250mA 0.35va)

They should charge fine.

I'd strongly recommend getting a new charger. The charger is as important as the cells themselves, an old charger has old technology which might not suit the newer, high capacity chemistries.

I got Power-2000 brand batteries from B&H, they work great. A slower charger is actually better for the batteries. Maha from http://thomasdistribut​ing.com have a reputation as the best in the industry.

I just got one of these. http://cgi.ebay.com …ory=50511&item=​7562713742

thanks for the replies...i went out and purchased a new charger and 8 '2300' rechargables by uniross ..(not a lot of selection at stores round here)this make will have to suffice untill i can source some of the better named brands ie 'energiser' btw how long for a 'full charge' for a 2300 only states '2000' battery on the instructions(8HRS)
