what's the best way to charge BMF batteries?

[michaelcly]

My batteries seem to take too long to charge. I have a wall charger and a PCC. What is the quickest way to charge them? Any rapid chargers out there?

I dont think there are any quicker ways, yet. However there is always hope. I bought the Totally Wicked 10 slot charger, also got 8- 901 to 510 adaptors from madvapes. I put the adaptors on the TW charger as tight as I could so they are there kinda forever. I take my MaxxFusions and screw them into the adaptors on the charger. Dont screw them in tight, just until the blue light starts its blinking, then walk away until the red light on the charger turns green. I leave them on even after they are charged so I always have a battery ready. I checked with TW and they said it was safe to do this, they themselves do this. So right now Ive got 4-MaxxFusions and 3-V4L Manual batts sitting in the charger, all charged up and ready to go anytime I need them. Take a charged one out, screw the dead one in. Thats it and for me a great investment. Good Luck. Sunny

Are you using a BMF PCC? Most 808 PCC's should be interchangeable, but sometimes they don't work as well.


How many bats do you have in rotation? I have 4 in rotation... it only takes about 2 hours to charge a batt, and there's no way in hell anyone could use 3 bats in that time.


As for the multi-slot chargers from totally wicked.. they're designed for 510's. They have adapters for 808's, but you have to buy them individually, and additionally. Plus, it will look pretty awkward.

Wife and I both have bloogs charging on one pcc and one wall charger. It's been ok that way. Our old joye 510 batts charged quicker—I guess because they are lower mah. I have two 510 chargers so I bought a pair of adapters from good prophets for 99 cents each. That should do it. Now at bedtime I'll be able to fill all the cartos and put all the batteries on the chargers at one time. Nice routine for me.

goodprophets also has a 808 pcc for 11.99. I'm checking into that as well. It charges at 200ma vs 150. Nominal difference but I'd like an add'l pcc anyway.
