I recently bought a Losi mini-t and an 1100 rechargable pack for it. With the battery was a 2-hour charger included with it, but I have a Novak rhino digital peak charger from when I raced electrics a while ago. The pack is NI-MH cells and the charger doesnt state weither it will work with these type of cells. Would it be safe to use it? Possibly using a very low amperage rate to charge?

I don't believe it will work very well, since the Rhino isn't made for NiMH and doesn't have adjustable delta peak. If you try it, make sure to closely monitor the pack. The Rhino will most likely over-charge it.

As long as I monitor the pack for temperature, would it be ok to use it? Or do you suggest that I just stick to the 2-hour charge?

The 2 hour charger would probably be more convenient and work just as well.

As long as you monitor the pack temperature you should be fine.
