I don't know if any of you have the same problem a battery pack only holding charge for 5 to 15 min but i had 2 packs that did not hold power.
Now i know you have to fully discharge nickel-cadmium battery but as they are Nickel-metal hydride i did not think you had to (but i dont know for sure).
I use a fast charge kit and play and charge but the controller will not let you run the battery flat so i made a crude discharge rig (see pic)
it took a few days and the battery ran for 2 days @ under 1volt.
well it works and holds charge now so that saved me 20 quid so im off to get some beer
Just thought i would share in case some of you guys have the same propblem
just found this might be interesting to some one looking at the same problem http://www.batteryspace.com/prod-specs/RR11-1-07.pdf
