Even when they were new.... rechargable alkalines were a bust and did
not perform well and did not have adequate discharge/recharge cycles.
Take them back to the dump.

I just found 8 rechargeable alkaline D cells at the dump. I would like
to try to charge them but am not sure what the correct way to do this
is. Can i follow the same procedure i usually use for nicads that is
10 percent of the rate for about 16 hours? Thanks, Lenny.
