for all custom nicad applications, i use radio controlled car batteries.... high
amp's... steady charge... great for quick charge... you can even get them
matched (which isn't really nessicary for most applications)

you can find these batteries in many house hold battery powered tools, dust
busters, the like...

also... for 20 bucks... for your lap top computer, you can improvise with
these... sometimes extending the life of the lap top greatly!!! i have a t1200xe
(286)... for half as much money you get just as much, if not more time...

also... i got some info from someone here that you can by pass the lead on the
handyboard for the motors so you can use an external power source...

Subject: NiMH batteries?


     Hi, I just came accross a 7.2volt (6 cell) NiMH battery. I think it's
from a cell phone. My questions are:

   1- can they be low current charged just like nicads?

   2- can they deliver gobs o' current like nicads?

   3- has anyone used them with a handyboard?

     I'd really like to use these on my robot due to their small size and
relatively large capacity.

                             TIA, Duncan

Does anyone know if NiMH batteries suffer from the memory effect? ---...--- ericson mar Master of Engineering Candidate Project: Mobile Robotics mar@cooper.edu (212)353-4356 Department of Mechanical Engineering The Cooper Union for the Advancement (...)
