Batteries and chargers
There is now a Wii in the house, so I need to get my act together
to keep its various bits supplied with power. Is this about the best bet for rechargeable AA batteries? http://www.7dayshop.com/catalog/product_info.php?cPath=777_3&products_id=108409 I know that charging stands (with special battery packs) are available, but since the documentation specifically cautions against in-situ charging, I am unsure if these would invalidate the warranty. There certainly seem to be some tales of woe amongst product reviews. I notice that "conditioning" chargers such as http://www.maplin.co.uk/Module.aspx?ModuleNo=217900&C=Froogle&U=217900&T=M odule are available, at a price. I can see that this might enable me to rehabilitate, or classify as unrecoverable some of my existing battery collection. Has anyone had a good experience with this, or something like it? Alternatively is it simply a better economic solution to scrap the old batteries, and stick with my existing charger? Chris -- Chris J Dixon Nottingham UK Have dancing shoes, will ceilidh. |
