Somewhat stupid question

i realize this is kind of a dumb question, but can the charger which is included in the micro rs4 sport rtr be used on a 5 cell nimh pack? i have only recently come to understand the importance of breaking-in new cells with 1/10 their mah, and don't want to use it on my main charger until that's been done. and does the rs4 sport rtr include an adapter for connecting the micro batteries to a tamiya style plug in my regular charger. thanks for any help. i have one in the mail and wanted to know if i need to pick anything up from my hobby shop prior to its delivery.

also, while on the subject of batteries, is breaking-in batteries necessary to achieve full capacity, or does it simply make the process take less time? i have a 3000 pack that i've been using in my t3, and it was never properly broken in, but it seems to be holding a decent charge now. it charges for around 35 min at 4.5 amps, but i'm not sure if that's max. the charger i'm using isn't exactly accurate at predicting peaks (it's a mrc superbrain 959), and i frequently have to charge it again after false peaking at 5-15 minutes. thanks again.
