Looking at my conditioning charger for both AA/AAA NiMH and NiCd cells, the
instruction sheet suggests reconditioning(completely discharging) NiCd cells
each time they are inserted, while with NiMH cells it says
recondition/discharge
completely every several times. So I am assuming memory effect for NiMH's
"isn't a big problem", but must still be considered. On the other hand,
<http://www.batteryuniversity.com/partone-12.htm> seems to indicate
the opposite.
So, Jeff, will you be able to find the right sized NiMH battery to replace
the lead acid one in the Outbound Laptop? Wonder if I could find the correct
size for my Outbound Notebook?
I don't know if I'd find a perfect fit, and I doubt that I could find
one with that particular connector, but I bet I could rig something
or find something that would fit in the compartment, provide 12V and
have a higher Amp-Hour rating.
On the other hand, the lead acid batteries are something like $25 and
I bet the NiMH would be considerably more. So I'm not likely to
pursue this in the near future.
Good to hear from you Saul. Us Outbound owners seem to be thin on the ground.
