Hi All
So, as per subject. This is for some solar lights that have 250mAh NiMH
1.2V AA cells, but would 2500mAh cells work too?


sure no problem. They'd last longer too as they only see part of a cycle each day. If the things contain more than 1 cell, do your best to capacity match them or they'll see repeated reverse charging which kills them much quicker.
