OK, for some reason I seem to have a knack for killing rechargable batteries. I wanted to see if I can get some guidance here on what I'm doing wrong. The 2 types of batteries are Ni-cad dewalt 18v a

Maybe it's not a good idea to leave the nicads in the charger all the time? My Craftsman 1-hour charger claimed it would automatically switch to a trickle-charge mode when the battery was fully charg

Lithium ion batteries have a short lifetime. They last about 24 months from the date of manufacture. That's true if they're used, or not. Beyond that, there are some things that will help them. you s

I think you are doing pretty much what you should do with the DeWalt batteries. They don't like deep discharge. I usually remove my batteries from the charger after about 24 hrs. This gives them tim

Right. "Trickle charge" is bad news for any kind of sealed battery. The optimum cycle for maximum life varies with the cell in question, but usually involves some sort of "fall back" where a chargin

Maybe Ni-MH batteries would be better. I've had my little Kodak digi camera for 36 months, put a couple of thousand pix though it and pay little attention to when I put it on the charging stand and w

The advantage -- and it really is singular -- of Li-ion batteries is power density. For a battery of a given mass, the Li-ion battery will hold more power than anything else except for some really ex

Is there any particular reason, other than the cost (which doesn't seem very different) that manufacturers send nicads with most rechargeable products that don't warrant lithium ion cells ? I've repl

NiMH batteries seem to have mostly replaced Nicads in those rechargeable battery+charger packages you can buy in places like Wal Mart. Since I have a NiMH charger, I have no reason to ever buy Nicad

NiCd cells are cheaper than NiMH ones, which is a big advantage in itself. A NiCd charger is simpler and cheaper. NiCd batteries havea lower self-discharge rate than NiMH batteries do, so they work b
