If anyone is interested in rechargeables and some nifty chargers you cant go past
Protog.
The chargers are sophisticated, they have charge, analyse, refresh and break in and and very reasonably priced.
Protog also have batteries that are excellent quality, of you're like me and use NiMh batteries infrequently then Sanyo Eneloops or equivalent have a low self discharge. I bought
this model and it's fantastic, I analysed some old nicads rated at 2000mah and they were only storing around 800mah, the recycle option brought them back to around 1500mah.
I have no affiliation with the company.
