Are you sure those aren't NiCd? The NiMH patent encumbreances say they're probably not NiMH. The NiCds would be type STM5-180). If that's what you have, no worries, they're good batteries. Properly charged and maintained, they should last you a long time. They're good for at least 3000 cycles. > I´ve got a bunch of bed frames for welding stock, Bed frames are nasty to work with.
