I curious to know how should one store used Ni-Cd rechargeable 
batteries. Should they be stored CHARGED or fully DISCHARGED?
And Why?

I use quite a few Ni-Cds but they usually die if I stop using 
them on a regular basis.

Therefore, I seek the wisdom of those who know?

.ps How does that apply to the newer Cam-corder batteries?
