Hi all,
I was wondering about using nicads in my RCX? has anyone had experience using
them. Can they be charged in the RCX?
Also will I need to reload the firmware every time I pull the batteries out
for a recharge or can I hot swap them while an ac adapter is plugged into the
RCX?
Thanks for any info!
-Mike
