Questions about Battery "Memory"
I've heard that rechargeable NiCad batteries can be damaged so that they experience a large drop in voltage (and thus appear to be dead) before they are completely dead by being discharged to a point (like halfway) and then being recharged. Then I've heard that NiMH batteries do not suffer from this, then that they actually do, then that the whole thing is a myth... what do you guys think about this battery "memory" effect?
