| Hm, it turns out that when packs of rechargable batteries say "only charge in (battery brand) charger or leakage may occur" on them, it isn't always merely product nepotism. This lesson brought to us by white goo oozing out of batteries, and by, apparently, an excess of cynicism.

| Ew. Sounds like battery acne. |

| Given that rechargeable alkaline, NiCad(hiss-boo die die die lousy crappy junk), and NiMh have very different charging requirements this is hardly surprising. RA: Full Voltage, flip to minor trickle NiCD: just junk 'em already NiMh: Full Voltage, trickle, disengage current after the last 20% of charge is reached. My love affair with RA is over now, given the price reductions of NiMh, and the definate short life-span of the RA's. As my stock wears out, they're rplaced with NiMh's, even if the RA's are stil nice 'n cheap. |

| Ah, that has happened to me once. Well, actually, its happened on a number of occasions because I tend not to learn from experiance. And there is the fact that I dont really give... but yes. I am sorry that your battery had has its guts leak out. *Pats your head* |
