Today on Secrets Of The Universe.........:) With rechargeable batteries, being left inside of a device will discharge the battery below its critical point. After a battery's voltage goes below a certain level, it will not be able to recover and becomes an useless lump of matter. This is why if you don't start your car for a while (say 3 months), the battery will die and cannot be revived. This is why Apple recommends that you remove the battery for storage. The same applies to a cordless phone.
Okay, I'll shut up now. -Robyn On Monday, July 8, 2002, at 12:49 AM, Nancy Haitz wrote: > Thanks for the clarification.
