No - so long as it's the correct voltage it'll be fine. The mAh figure is the battery's capacity - the higher the number - the longer it will last between charges in the same piece of equipment. It'll take a bit longer to charge though. I have a mobile phone - which came with a 600mAh battery. I bought a 950mAh equivalent off the 'net and get about twice the talk-time from it. I charge mine through my computers USB port when I need to.
Yes
Your putting a charge on the battery when its running.
by putting a battery
No. That would defy the point of putting the battery there in the first place.
There is no fool proof way. Get a new battery if putting it on a slow charger does not work.
Nothing too exciting, assuming the battery voltage is the same, and all batteries are roughly fully charged (or equivalently charged). If the battery voltage is not the same, one battery will attempt to charge the other, causing excessive heating. The heating will be greater the greater voltage disparity that exists. In general, putting two AA batteries in parallel is fine. or two AAA, or two D, etc. It's when you try to mix batteries - like putting an AA in parallel with a car battery or a 9 volt battery.
No. It does not require very much power. If the battery is not putting out enough power to turn the starter, but is putting out some power it may still work. If the battery is totally dead it will not work.
Each cell of a battery has a predefined voltage, and for a given type of battery, a predefined maximum current capability. Putting cells in series, just like putting batteries in series, increases the voltage (1 AAA battery = 1.5 volts, 2 AAA batteries in series = 3 volts). Putting cells in parallel increases the amount of current that can be drawn from them (1 cell = 1 cell max. current, 2 cells in parallel = 2 cells worth max current). Note available power will be the same (P = V*I), so whether you use a series or parallel connection usually depends upon the desired output voltage.
No unless you leave it in there for months. Want to drain it, the connect something to the battery and leave it on.
try turning it off then removing the battery then putting the battery back in the turning it on. it worked on mine
No, putting cassette tapes in the freezer will not revitalize them. This will damage the tapes. However, putting batteries into the freezer will revitalize the battery charge.
Car battery charges can check the damage done to the actual battery but to the entire car is another story
