[SEL] Cordless Tools (Semi-OT)

[Elden DuRand]

Reg:

I believe you will come to grief trying to charge Lithium Ion batteries with a NiCad charger.  Best bet would probably be to get some of the newer type NiCads which behave a lot better than the old ones.

This will get you a lot of NiCads!

Good luck!

Oh, yes - almost forgot!  HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYBODY!

Take care - Elden
