NiMH Rechargeable Battery Repair
Sorry for crosspost but r.b.e doesn't seem to see much traffic these days.
I am trying to rebuild several old handheld VHF battery packs that seem no longer commercially available. The radios themselves seem fine and are certainly OK for my application. I took the batteries apart and tried a temporary fix with standard alkaline AA cells, taping aluminum foil in place to make series connections. The radios seemed to like this so I bought a quantity of the corresponding NiMH rechargeable AA cells to make a permanent repair. Problem is I am not at all sure how to secure a conductor from "plus" to "minus" with the cells to make a strong and long-lasting series connection. Is there some kind of conductive adhesive or conductive film that can be used for this application? Larry, where are you when we need you (weak humor)? -- Good luck and good sailing. s/v Kerry Deare of Barnegat http://home.comcast.net/~kerrydeare |
