Warlord...

Sorry this is off topic, but I could use your help, You have the same phone as me, it takes AAA rechargeable batteries, but no matter what brand we put in, they only last a couple of months, then die, because our phone is on and off charge constantly, not good for Nimh batteries... what can I do, what do you do?

Boxes look great BTW, did you really make them all in 1 day?

[maccafan]

They look great Mark..The one on the xtreme left looks mega..

I am sure they'll sell like hot cakes..

Honestly mate i'm using the standard batteries that came with the phone ... So far no issues like that and our phone is on and off charge all the time...

Technically i didn't build them all in one day lol - Made all the holes on Sunday and added in all the components and soldered up yesterday - as well as the 18650 on the end hehe

Yeh, the original ones lasted ages in comparison, I binned them when they eventually did go, assuming they were just Nimh without really checking

Well if it helps mine have part number by1014 on them and 400Mah i'll have a look at the finer writing later on for you

They do seem to be nimh, but much lower mah than I have been buying, wonder if that's done for a reason, maybe to help ensure fuller charge/discharge cycles, what do you think?

If it's a Panasonic phone I have a similar one here I use for my business line and they are Panasonic Brand 550mAh part number HHR-55AAAB.
They are a sorta light orange it says they are NiMh.
