I asked a battery-man here about that a couple of years ago, but I am confused by his answers. Yes batteries do have "memory", but he said that letting a battery sit around in a discharged state, or to use them in a nearly discharged state was the worst thing, so he recommended faithfully keeping them charged up. I would appreciate hearing a less confused answer on this than my memory provides - perhaps I've been running discharged too long. - Harry Langenbacher 818-354-9513 harry%neuron1@jpl-mil.jpl.nasa.gov harry@neuron1.jpl.nasa.gov 128.149.12.7
