Panasonic BQ-390? 2300mAh charging time?

[david93]

I just bought a Panasonic BQ-390 charger with 4 2300mAh batteries. the sales lady told me that the charging time would take about 2 - 3 hours long. when i went online, they are some site stating that the charging time would take about 7 - 8 hours and some site saying like 1 - 3 hours long..

does anybody know the real charging time, and how long it would take to charge a 4 2300mAh batteries using panasonic BQ-390.

Check the output that should be on the label on the back of the charger or read the manual. It should indicate how many mAs output on charging 4 cells. This will give you a ball park estimate. If it outputs 1000mA, then 2300/1000= ~2.3hrs charge time, in theory.
