A NiCad charger has different sensor values than NiMh. I would find a charger that has a switch to select either, or specifically a Nickel Metal Hydride battery charger to prevent damaging and shortening the life of your batteries.

Will a NiMh charger charge NiCad Batteries?

Some will, but it is not recommended because it can damage the batteries or the charger. Invest in a NiCd charger or better yet get some NiMh batteries. NiMh batteries are better than NiCd in every way.


Can Nimh batteries can be charged with Nicd charger?

It is always better to use a charger designed to charge a particular battery type. Using a NiCad charger for NiMh batteries or vice versa can cause damage to the charger or batteries, especially if the charger is designed to charge the batteries in under two hours. The worst case is a fire risk. Some charger and battery combinations will work perfectly well together but it is safe to assume that the charger will only be suitable for the battery types stated on it.


Can GP rechargeable AA Batteries use in Energizer charger?

If its a NiMH battery then yes. The Energizer charger will charge ANY brand of NiMH rechargeable batteries.


What all batteries will and Energizer wall Charger charge?

The Energizer wall charger is designed to charge various types of rechargeable batteries, primarily NiMH (Nickel-Metal Hydride) and NiCd (Nickel-Cadmium) batteries. It typically accommodates AA and AAA sizes, though some models may also charge C, D, and 9V batteries. Always check the specific model specifications to ensure compatibility with the batteries you intend to charge.


What are the differences between NiMH and NiCd batteries for solar lights, and which one is more suitable for optimal performance and longevity?

NiMH batteries have higher energy density and are more environmentally friendly than NiCd batteries. NiMH batteries are also less prone to memory effect and have a longer lifespan. Therefore, NiMH batteries are more suitable for optimal performance and longevity in solar lights compared to NiCd batteries.


Can I replace NiCd batteries with NiMH batteries in solar lights?

Yes, you can typically replace NiCd batteries with NiMH batteries in solar lights as long as the voltage and size of the batteries are compatible. NiMH batteries are a more environmentally friendly option and may provide better performance in some cases.


Your camera insists to use nimh AA batteries can you use nicd batteries?

yes. NiMH batteries and chargers are easier to come by though. Alot of times, the mAh will be higher in the NiMH batteries as well...so there is really no point to using NiCD unless you'd prefer it.


Does a dynamite mega 1 charger charge NiMh batteries?

Packs,yep..


What are the differences between NiCd and NiMH batteries for solar lights, and which one is more suitable for optimal performance and longevity?

The main differences between NiCd and NiMH batteries for solar lights are their energy density, memory effect, and self-discharge rate. NiMH batteries have higher energy density, no memory effect, and lower self-discharge rate compared to NiCd batteries. Therefore, NiMH batteries are more suitable for optimal performance and longevity in solar lights.


Are mcVolt Li-Ion laptop batteries really better than NiMh and NiCd batteries?

Nickel Cadmium batteries contain Cadmium, a toxic heavy metal, which is harmful to the environment. Nickel-Metal Hydride batteries offer a higher capacity(runtime)per same size(voltage output) than NiCd batteries and mcVolt Litium Ion laptop batteries have a higher capacity than NiMh(those sold by most manufacturers). NiMh batteries are also lighter and have little memory effect compared to their NiCd counterparts. mcVolt Li-ion laptop batteries are light, have a higher capacity and have no memory effect compared to NiMh and NiCd batteries.


Do NiMH batteries have memory, and if so, how does it affect their performance and lifespan?

NiMH batteries do not have a memory effect like NiCd batteries. Memory effect is when a battery "remembers" its previous charge level and loses capacity if not fully discharged before recharging. This means NiMH batteries can be recharged at any time without affecting their performance or lifespan.


How long do you charge AA batteries?

AA rechargeable batteries typically take about 4 to 8 hours to fully charge, depending on the charger and battery capacity. It's important to use a charger designed for the specific type of rechargeable AA batteries, such as NiMH or NiCd. Always refer to the manufacturer's guidelines for optimal charging times to ensure safety and battery longevity. Avoid overcharging, as it can reduce battery life.
