grandcell rechargable

They work just like normal alkalines, but you can top them
up in the (special) charger. But they don t like deep cycling;
if you discharge them deeply they will never recharge back to
100%, best for shallow cycles only.

You can probably get several cycles out of them like that, but
given their limitations AND the fact that all mine have *leaked*,
I don’t buy Grandcells anymore.

nicad rc packs

These are just packs of standard AA or AAA cells.
When using Nicad/NiMH, one should use 5 cells x 1.2V
to replace 4 x 1.5V drycells.
