Re: Laptop battery question
Among my MANY areas of expertise (spelling is not one of them) I know LOTs about rechargeable batteries...
Ni-Cads posess what is called memory...if a Nicad is suppose to give you a certain service life (time or shots or flashes) but you frequently DON'T use it to its full extent and go on to recharge it time after time after time it will remember the NEW usage you are asking of it (meaning less demand)...you can re-educate it by taking it all the way down, then recharge, then down and recharge, maybe several times and you can bring it up to original specs...this generally works in the first 75 to 80 % of the batteries usage (life)...the last 15 to 25 % of battery life it may NOT be possible...depending on the indivual Ni-Cad they can be recharged 500 to 1000 times (YES there are exceptions)
Lithion-Ion rechargable batteries HAVE NO MEMORY PROBLEM...there is a recharge life on them as in ALL rechargable batteries...there should give you OVER 1000 recharges...
if you want to know about LOX vs NOVA I can also discuss it...
