Hi All,
Anyone know--- Is it best to store a Ni-Cad battery fully charged, or fully dis-charged ?? How about other battery types ?
TIA,
Ron Rich

Discharge Ni-Cads to almost zero to lessen memory effects. If stored with a reasonable good charge the next charge cycle starts at that percentage and capacity will be effectively 0% at that charge level up to full voltage. Ran into this with my old RC cars, if not pulled way down would loose storage capacity.

Hi Stephen, That's what I thought--but was not sure--I THINK Li's are to be stored fully charged ?? Ron Rich
