So for the Topcat batteries what charge current do you recommend?

The NiCads don't seem to get hot on charging. Is your experience different?

All my NiCd packs, except one, have been rebuilt with NiMH cells and are charged at 0.5C or less. I haven't noticed the packs getting hot on charging, but I use the temp sensor just to be safe.

For serious battery cell maintenance, find a charger that can perform a "Forming Charge", like the Powerex MH-C9000PRO.
