Battery Help

Post by Twiceblown351 »

How much are you supposed to discharge NIMH and NICD Battery? To what V?

I just got a Hyperion EOS0606i charger. And I'm trying to tune up some of my Batteries. And I'm not shore how to go about it.

Thanks

Typically Nimh cells should never be discharged below 0.8V but can be as high as 1.1V depending on the cell. 0.9V is a good general guideline. You should consult the specs for your battery and use the manufacturers recommended values.

I have that same charger and do I love it :D

None of my Nimh battery's are top of the line. When I first received the charger I just just performed a discharge/charge cycle and it seemed to wake up the batteries better than my Integy Peak charger did.
