The bog standard rechargeable batteries (750 mAhr) in our DECT phones are
starting to lose their ability to hold their charge: they indicate full

being taken off the charging base station, especially if used on
speakerphone.

Is there a problem with replacing them with batteries that can hold more
charge ie 750 mAhr. I presume the phone will still charge them at its
standard rate (though it may take longer to charge them).

The cynic in me thinks Supermarkets place these "special" DECT
batteries in the phone isle just so they can charge a premium.


I will go for branded (eg Duracell) rechargeable batteries.

I presume that if the original batteries are NiMH, I should go for that same
technology.

Yes. Can you even buy NiCads on the High St?


sort of.

Not high street but they are available,.
