I can't wait that long to charge the batteries!

Caspian · 2007-07-26T11:01:43+00:00

Some domestic appliances come with rechargeable cells that need charging for many hours before their first use.For example, I have a Panasonic DECT phone with two AAA NiMH cells which needs charging for 7 hours.But maybe you can't wait that long for some reason and you simply "must" use the appliance!How much would cell life be reduced if such an appliance is used after, say, only 30 to 60 minutes of charging instead of the 7 hours?

It didn't deserve the dignity of the effort it takes, so I didn't. You're a borderline troll, and if you don't want to cross that line, I suggest you don't bother to reply at all.

I can imagine the technically correct salesman responding to an enquiry:

Customer: " Do you sell AA batteries?" Salesman: " Sorry, we don't have any." Customer: " Well what are those behind you in that shelf there?" Salesman: "They are AA cells." Customer: " Well, why tell me you don't keep them, you..."
