Here's your answer bubba...
For the 2.4v batteries, you want be charging at a rate of 2.4v @ 1.5Amps for the 45seconds (to get the equivalent runtime of the normal battery at the normal charging parameters)
Here's the problem...If you're using the charging station as-is, without modifying it for higher output, then you're not properly charging the 2.4v 2-cell batt (because you're sending only 1.5v).
So, go to questformadess' mod #26. It's meant for the Bit Controller but will work on the ZipZap controller as well:
