I have also heard of people doing the same thing with a car battery

there are to many internal shorts.
car batteries plates are consumed and fall apart after awhile, you
might get a shorted cell once in a great while but the vast majority
of car batteries plates just disengrate
I was talking about using the car battery to fix the nicad
Sorry i miss toook what you said

nothing lasts forever
A local tool store had a big business going for awhile, apparently
zapping battery packs. Ther business ended as people lined up for
refunds....
