Should I modify the hb circuit to disable the recharge circuitry if I am using
nimh batteries or will the circuitry just not recharge the batteries ?, i.e. no
damage to the cells by using them on an 'as-is' board.

As an extra question to the list in general, does any one know what circuitry is
used to recharge the nimh batteries ?, I don't want to dismantle my charger to
find out so any information would be greatly appreciated

Thanks for your help.

Would installing a diode (power diode, >3A ?) into the +ve line of the battery pack be suitable to prevent the power circuitry of the HB from trying to recharge the nimh cells ?. Or do I actually need to do anything at all ?, i.e. the nimh cells (...) (24 years ago, 21-Sep-00, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
