What is a good NiMH charger?

The best overall The Nitecore D4 Charger is great because it can automatically detect and charge Li-ion, LiFePO4, Ni-MH, and Ni-Cd (AA, AAA, AAAA, and C) batteries.

Is it better to store NiMH batteries charged or discharged?

Duracell NiMH Battery Storage Batteries should be kept clean and dry both during use and storage. They can be stored for many months in a charged or discharged state without any detrimental effects as long as they are not exposed to extreme temperatures for any long period of time.

Do NiMH batteries need to be fully discharged?

A: Older generation and batteries with other chemical make-up were subject to a memory effect. This is when a battery must be fully drained before recharge or their capacity is reduced. The New Generation of NIMH batteries do not develop a memory effect and can be recharged at anytime during usage cycle.

Is eneloop a NiMH?

Eneloop batteries are rechargeable NiMH batteries. They are famous for their extremely Low Self Discharge characteristics. This means that they can keep a charge longer than any other NiMH or NiCD rechargeable battery in the world.

How can I make my NiMH batteries last longer?

Here are some tips to take better care of your NiMH batteries:

  1. Once every few months, discharge the NiMH battery fully and recharge them again.
  2. Use them!
  3. Refrain from using ultra fast chargers.
  4. Do not charge at high or low temperatures.
  5. It is not necessary to discharge the battery fully before charging them.

  • How long do NiMH batteries take to charge?

    Parallel charging. Parallel charging makes the cells and batteries hard to charge in parallel.

  • Overnight charging. The easiest way to charge a nickel-metal hydride battery is to charge at C/10 or below.
  • Faster charging. It’s possible to charge at C/3.33 for 5 hours when using a timer.
  • Trickle charging.
  • Can NiCAD and NiMH batteries use the same recharger?

    NiMH batteries should only be used with a charger designed for their chemistry. Due to the charging rates of other chemistry types, they would tend to overcharge NiMH batteries. While a NiCd charger will charge NiMH batteries, it will be very slow and will eventually damage the battery. NiCd batteries can be charged with a NiMH charger.
