Just had to replace the batteries in a pair of Vtech phones (model
20-2481).
Old were nicad. New are Nimh. Differences? Best way to charge, how
often?



NiCad can develop memory, should be deep discharged at time before charging.

Nimh can be topped of without any memory effects. Lat longer, generally
more cycles. Often more power in the same sized cell.


Hi,
But charging circuits are different. You can't charge NiMh in NiCad
charger or vice versa.
