Superfly, you're not charging at 1000mah. You could connect the charger to the mains (provided you stepped down voltage to ~3v DC) and the car would have 100's of amps at it's disposal, but would still only draw the 300ma it normally does. As I've said, Ni-Cads in a controller can put out 100amps (or close) but they certainly don't deliver all their current to the car. Matter of fact, you're giving the charger less current than alkalines could deliver.

This might be one of those areas where theory and practice diverge. The quality of the charge I get from the 1000ma DC adapter is noticably different than what I get from batteries, even brand new alkalines. It is also different with adapters rated at different mah output. I'll have to re-read the posts to see what I'm missing, but my experience has been that the charge the battery receives is different depending on what I use to charge it.
