Is there any application where NiMH batteries aren useful?
Keeping in mind the information above, I will say that the ONLY thing I’ve come across so far that just wouldn’t work with NiMH batteries was my daughter’s Poochi robotic dog toy. Poochie takes 3 AAA batteries, and she must be really sensitive to voltage because she works with the batteries straight off the charger, but as soon as they settle down to their regular voltage of 1.2 volts, Poochie dies a quiet death. Regular (non-Imedion) NiMH batteries also don’t hold their charge as long as alkalines (they’ll gradually lose their charge over a few months), so it didn’t make practical or economic sense, for example, to put rechargeable batteries in an emergency flashlight that just sits on top of your fridge for six months at a time, but now with the Imedion Ultra-Low-Discharge batteries, you also have an excellent rechargeable solution for these devices too!
Keeping in mind the information above, I will say that these days it’s VERY rare to come across something that won’t work with NiMH batteries. I now VERY rarely hear about any such device (especially any brand-name device from a reputable supplier). Regular (non-Imedion) NiMH batteries don’t hold their charge as long as alkalines (they’ll gradually lose their charge over a few months), so it didn’t make practical or economic sense, for example, to put rechargeable batteries in an emergency flashlight that just sits on top of your fridge for six months at a time, but now with the Imedion Ultra-Low-Discharge batteries, you also have an excellent rechargeable solution for these devices too!
