Hi to all. The camera that I just baught comes with NiMh batteries and a charger.Can I charge Nicad's in this charger. A quick glance on the internet shows that these type of batteries are almost identical. I am pretty sure there should be no problem using Nicads in the charger , but as I'm in no hurry I thought I'd check. cheers Rob

many NiMh chragers are suited to charging NiCd cells, but if yours doesn't say so it might be bad for them.
Bye.

I believe that nicads can always be charged with nimh chargers, but not the other way around. nimh cells are a bit more difficult to detect end-of-charge on. So, I'd say go for it. If you are really worried, don't ask here, send email to the manufacturer and ask them.
