I have a charger for Nicd, Nimh batteries that is supposed to charge cells from 4.8V to 9.6V. I bought 2 - 6V 1200mah Nimh batteries for my model car receiver and charged them on trickle 150mA for 3 hours then checked the voltage of the cells 1 was 10.2Vdc and the other 8.6Vdc. This makes me think the charger is outputting 10V all the time what I would like to do is regulate that voltage down to 6V so I don't cook the cells.
Can anyone suggest what resistance or something to do this with? don't want to buy another charger if not necessary
