Default Nicad charger for 4x sub c cells

On 4/13/2009 11:31 PM justallan spake thus:

I have a lawn edger with an electric start that is powered by 4x sub C
nicads. They have died and the charger has long gone missing. A
genuine charger costs about $70. Does anyone know, is there any
reason I cannot use something like this to charge them?

I'd think not, as that one is made for NiMH and not NiCd batteries.
Different charging rates, different cycle times.
