I live in Houston, TX.I recently discovered that I can get good NiCd cells out of bad power tool battery packs. I have 6 bad packs but I need more. I figure I should be able to find these for free somewhere. I thought about going to the city recycling center and ask for some, but my gut tells me that they'll tell me no. So, any bright ideas where I can get a bunch of them?
Ask your friends if they have any old cell phones laying around. I know I have a drawer full of various cell phone batteries that I will probably never use but for some reason I keep them just in case.
I extremely have not tried it, yet it somewhat is the way which you would be able to erase the memory. Discharge the battery slowly, so as that ought to characterize which you will positioned a great resistor around the battery until eventually it is thoroughly discharged. then you definitely ought to charge the battery at approximately a million/4 the traditional value. That must be finished 4 or 5 circumstances, and the concept is that the memory would be erased. I did have a chum who did this very in lots of circumstances.
