I just got a Lightstick Code 20 off of E-Bay. It's two years old but never
been used, everything was still sealed up. Have things figured out I think
but there were no directions. The big questions I have regards the
batteries. I have no idea how long to charge them, and secondly, I don't
know if the chargers are smart chargers or if I need to unplug them after a
certain time.

Not sealed up that well if it had no directions, eh? :-) Have you
checked out www.vistalite.com? Oh nevermind, I just went there and it's
pretty useless.

I have a Code 10 with NiCd stick and a Code 15 with NiMH stick.

Both came with "dumb" chargers that you have to unplug after a few
hours. I assume the Code 20 is the same, only more so :-).

I haven't used the NiMH setup yet. For the NiCd setup, I'd charge it up
either over night or the whole work day after 45 mins of use.

I assume the NiMH setup is similar to others and need less trickle
charging than a NiCd after the same run time. With my Nightrider NiMH
battery pack, I'd charge it four or five hours after about 45 mins of use.
