Tord, it is really expensive, but I'm worried about their claim of 10 minutes time. Maha C401 charger, referred to in another post, has 2 modes - gentle and fast (the latter with higher current apparently), and they recommend using "fast" only when you are really in hurry, because it shortens battery life by some undetermined amount of time. And this "fast" mode of Maha is still 100 minutes, - not 10. (Gentle mode takes 5 hours). It appears that Maha and their Powerex batteries are quite at the cutting edge, so they must be at least partially right. *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List - Any opinions or suggestions expressed here are solely those of the writer(s).
