[AT] Battery

[Mike Sloane]

Just be sure to get a charger designed for NiMH batteries - a NiCD 
charger won't charge them properly. The great thing about NiMH batteries 
is that they don't have a "memory" - you can charge them when they are 
only half discharged, and they will still work properly. NiCD batteries 
will "remember" where you charged them and only work to that level. 
Also, you can recharge NiMH batteries hundreds of times, whereas NiCDs 
are only good for maybe 100 cycles.
