As Fred is recommending using nicads due to the constant trickle charge when
connected to the mains adapter I have a question regarding the nicad batteries.
If the batteries are trickle charged before they are fully discharged (usual
practice I assume due to memory backup circuitry) won't the nicad 'memory'
effect come into play ?. Does anyone have any experiences of this sort of
problem with the HB ?.

Thanks.

in theory this can be a problem. in practice, as long as the nicads are occasionally allowed to fully discharge, they'll last for a good long time in fine condition. fred In your message you said: (...) es. (...) (24 years ago, 22-Sep-00, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
