What do you mean by that? NiMH's can be up to 2500 mAh. IC3's are just a brand of NiMH. You should be fine.

I wouldn't worry about the new charger making them explode. Generally, that's if you tried to mix and match NiMH and NiCd, for example. I've put a lot of different batteries into a lot of different chargers, and as long as you charge the same batteries together, it should be fine (i.e. don't mix and match capacities on the charger at the same time).
