Since they are NiMH, they last a VERY long time. The archive for this =
list has a thread about reconditioning the batteries.

They do go bad eventually, but you can find links in the FAQ on how to =
rebuild them with new cells.

Importance: High

Hi there,

I've bought two pairs of NiMH 1800 mAH batteries for my Newt, along=3D20
with a so called intelligent recharger. The first charge lasted for =
a=3D20
week an a half (the Newt was accusing 18% of the capacity when I =
put=3D20
them to recharge).

Is that normal? How many charges do these batteries usually get =
before=3D20=3D

dying?

Cheers,
