"Batteries"
How long should I charge my RC 7.2 volt batteries. I was told that the longer you charge them the better they hold the charge. Is that true?

If you overcharge batteries you can actually damage them! Use a peak detection charger that automatically cuts off, or follow your chargers instructions. Overcharging actually shortens the life (been there done that).
