Charging a modified battery.

I just bought a 120mah 1/3AAA battery for the battery upgrade mod. I was wondering when you charge the car can you:

1. use the standard charger with no mods?
2. would I just do 2 charge cycles (1 after another) to achieve the 90 sec charge time?

thanx

I guess nobody here has a two battery set-up?

Is this just a battery upgrade to 120mah battery or dual battery mod with two of the same kind of battery?

If its just upgrade to a single 120mah battery charge twice for 90 seconds or do the mod to change the timing capacitor to 90 seconds.

If its dual battery mod you are going to have to mod the controller to get a full (3volt?) charge. And don't charge it for too long or else your battery will start sizzling (that happened to me =0) Also in order to turn off the charger after the mod u have to remove the batteries or else it will always be on.
