Nope, no problems with NiMH. Might want to fix it up with a snart charger that'll switch from full charge to just a trickle when it senses the cells are fully charged. The so-called "memory effect" isn't a big problem. Poke this NiCd "memory effect" into Yahoo for more info. Do not try to replace the battery with Lithium Ion or Lithium Polymer Ion cells. Those require a complex charger with a thermistor to monitor the temperature of the cells. Charging them too fast will make them overheat and get ruined or they can even explode.
