Default Charging Relions with Duralite Plus

Can you charge Relions with a Duralite plus charger? I know that sounds stupid but I cant see why not. Has anyone tried this before?

Thanks

NO!

The Duralite chargers can have too high a voltage. (I have measured one as high as 8.8V) It works with the Duralite batteries because of the internal protetion circuit. There is no pretection circuit in the Relions.
