My Philips Kala cordless phone batteries need replacing. It is fitted
with 2 x AA 1.2v 600 mAh NiCd batteries and the handbook says only AA
600 mAh rechargeable batteries should be used as replacements. I have
some AA 2000mAh Ni-Mh batteries and was wondering if it would be ok to
use them in this phone?


It is perfectly OK, the charging circuitry is quite crude and
although the battery life might be slightly reduced it is unlikely to
be noticed.


Thanks for that, will give it a try.
