I had always read that nicads should be run down before being
recharged. I've done that with my Dust Buster and gotten excellent
battery life out of it.




the DB is designed to stay on the charger 24/7/365.(at least my model is)
Mine lasted 10 yrs before needing a new pack,which was cheaper thna buying
a new DB.

you can buy NiCd cells at Digi-Key specifically designed for continuous
charging.
