The manual for Gameboy says not to use nicad batteries. I 
called their hot line where I was told that this is because
the nicads can explode and damage the game. What are the
conditions where this is a concern? I have some ideas but
I'd appreciate the net.wisdom interpretation of this warning.

TIA,
Tom
