Motorworks charger

If I had a dual cell (50 MAH) could I do it with my Motorworks charger? Also how long should I charge it (sorry I'm dumb) Put some links if you don't want to type

Your best bet is getting a wall transformer that outputs 9v's (NiMh) and running it through the MotorWorks stand-alone charger. I've had nothing but bad luck charging dual cells without the help of an AC connection. The charger (by itself) will work better then your MS/Bit/Clone charger, but...you'll be missing out on the true power of a dual/triple cell mod, IMO.

I don't have a soldering iron though. Any other way to put a wall jack on the damn thing?

You'll really need a soldering iron if you want it to last. You can always strip the insulation and just wrap it around the old battery contacts, but that won't last long and won't always make a good circuit. Soldering irons are dirt cheap at RadioShack. Under $8 I believe.

9v is a bit steep for a dual cell. I use 7.5v for my 3cell cars. I usually use around 6v for a dual cell car.
