My understanding is that too low is no big deal. Too high can "boil" the

Where did you learn this wisdom? If I'm wrong, I'd sure like to get the
correct facts.

you can cause a fire if it's too low. there is no danger if it's too high.
see if you can google for the manual or specs on it.

I found the transformer listed on B&D's web but NO specs. *Sounds like
the transformer wires would simply heat up if amperage was too low so
I could simply switch to to the higher mA setting????- Hide quoted text -

12v nicad is not 12v. A 1.2v Nicad is dead at 1.2v and charged at near
1.35v. They have an amp rating and you must meet it to fully charge. A
C cell might be 1.2-1.8a so 10 C cells could use a 14v 2a charger that
senses peak voltage to shut off, you can measure peak V by voltage
drop with a digital battery meter, its is also when batteries start to
heat up converting electrical energy to mechanical vibrating and
cooking the battery to death. Or go see what is sold or call a repair
center.
