I've a Siemens A35 with battery problems.

I disassembled the battery pack (NiMh, 600MaH, 3,6V). It's composed by 3
AAA cells.

The cells are blue, the serial number is 17S0206LNT

The connection is:
+ B A T T E R Y P A C K -
+.[+CELL1-].[+CELL2-].[+CELL3].-

After the charging process, the whole battery pack is at 4,24 V, each
cell at 1,42V.

I wonder if I can change the cells with new NiMh ones.
Could it work? What kind of AAA NiMh cell should I use? MaH?

Thanks a lot

I'd use any 600mAh NiMH cells that fit. Note that each cell must be
rated for 600mAh, not 200mAh per cell.

I've changed the cells in my c35i battery. I got the cells from Farnell in
the UK. First time they sent me Sanyo cells the second time they sent
Varta. Both sets were good.
