as
readily if the adapter is left plugged in too long so there is no greater
danger to using NIMh compared to NiCads.

Subject: [M100] NiMH batteries
I was reviewing the T200 service manual and noticed that it could be configured
to recharge NiCd batteries running in the battery compartment by setting two
jumpers. Does anyone have any information (or thoughts) on recharging NiMH in
the same way?
Thanks,

Description:
Mine has no memory battery. I just leave 4 Eneloop NiMH AA's in the battery
pack and back it up on the REX when I swap them to charge.
I ordered a replacement NiMH cell for the memory battery from
arcadeshopper, but haven't been motivated to install it.

The REX and battery I ordered from Arcadeshopper will be here next week;
I'll take the system back apart and swap the battery then.
I'm still amazed at the thought that this battery has held out for 32
years. Even with the memory power switch off, I'd have expected it to

At this point it's not even bad. Just old. It should be replaced when you
have time to do it.

Thanks! I wasn't trying to complain, just trying to find out what my
options were.
