With NiMH batteries time is not the problem. Temperature is. You need a charger that will detect a temperature spike and it will shut off the charger. NiMH are very sensitive to temperature at the end of charge and any overtemperature will kill the battery. Any good factory system should come with a smart charger. If it doesn't get a Maha C777+, possibly one of the best chargers available.
