I currently have 1.3Ah NiCD's, so I guess the extra Ah would be useful, but
is there an advantage or indeed disadvantage to NiMH batteries? I guess the

IIRC, you said you had got the exact same set that I have. If so, the
charger is one of http://www.directbrandtools.com/Deta...q sSubCat=186

Labelled 7.2v-14.4v Fast Charger or 7.2v - 14.4v NiCd , NiMH Batteries
Max Amp : 2.6Ah


So I guess it would be fine.
